its own.
Started back in 1958, Albena resort has gradually become one of Bulgaria’s largest summer resorts. The wide, six-kilometers-long beach is protected by natural dunes and touted as the best on the coast, with an average water temperature of 24 degrees C (75F) and loads of sunny days. With more than 43 (2 to 4 stars) hotels capable of accommodating some 20,000 visitors, the resort can get pretty crowded during peak season but most of the hotels are set back from the beach, in numerous small shaded parks and gardens.
Albena lives up to its motto of “Where families come first!”
Children and toddlers are kept occupied with the likes of kiddie trains, well-equipped playgrounds, and organized festivals. But not only kids have all the fun. Adult sports include: windsurfing, sailing, parasailing, speedboating, scooter-driven parachuting, pedalboating, waterskiing, horseback riding, archery, mini-golf, roller and in-line skating, bowling, tennis, bicycling, beach volleyball and wall climbing (for the truly bored).
To soothe sore muscles after all that physical exertion there are balneo-therapy treatment centers.
Night Life is as equally varied and includes casinos, discos and nightclubs with live cabaret acts and colorful floor shows. Some 130 restaurants and taverns are accustomed to catering to foreign tastes so there’s something for everyone.
Albena is ecologically clean spa resort with fresh air, crystal clear sea, mineral water and perfectly organized medical and spa centers with highly qualified professionals.
The combination of natural factors: specific sea climate – clean air, ozone, calcium, iodine with optimal air humidity – 63-65% and the mineral water – hypothermal with 30C temperature, slightly mineralised, hydrocarbonate with calcium and magnesium, all work in perfect symbiosis for the successful treatment of disturbances of the locomotive system – arthritic and rheumatic complaints, arthritis, rheumatoid arthritis, post-traumatic states, gout diseases of the muscles and tendons, etc.
