Primorsko is located on a peninsula between the Stamoplo and Devil's bays. It has established itself as a favorite destination for both young travelers and families, offering a great balance of entertainment and affordability. The town has two extensive sandy beaches: the North Beach, famous for its dunes and surfing conditions, and the South Beach, which is calmer and good for families. Nature lovers shouldn't miss the Ropotamo Reserve nearby, where boat trips on the river reveal blooming water lilies and diverse bird species. A major cultural attraction is Beglik Tash, a Bronze Age megalithic Thracian sanctuary located in the forest just north of town. Often called the 'Bulgarian Stonehenge,' it consists of massive stones arranged for ancient rituals. Primorsko also features a modern Aqua Park and a lively promenade lined with bars and restaurants. Surrounded by the greenery of the Strandzha Mountains, it features plenty of eco-tourism opportunities. The town is situated about 50 km south of Burgas and is well-connected by road to other southern resorts.
