ALBENA - THE PLACE TO BE
|
Albena is one of the most beautiful resorts along the Bulgarian seacoast. According to some legends, Ovidius came here on his way to the country of his exile - Tomi (present Kyustendzha in Romania). The resort was given its present-day name by Albena, a female protagonist of the great Bulgarian writer Yordan Yovkov, gifted with extraordinary beauty.The resort is a delight to people of all ages. With the sand lines, and the crystal sea, Albena offers a pleasure to every taste. The resort's errection was started in 1968, which makes it one of the most modern holiday cities along the Bulgarian coast. The complex lies beneath a relatively high hill and is given particular charm by the near-by forest of Baltata, a part of which is declared a protected area. The latter is also called Batova Gora (Batova Forecast) after the Batova river, in the valley of which it grows. |

The resort's architecture resembles one of Walter Gropius' urban models as most of the hotels have a terraced structure aimed at providing as much sun as possible in summer days. To the north the coast is steep, featuring yellow sandstone and limestone typical of the area. It is in fact this stone slope that was the main source of construction material for the resort. Albena is situated only 30 km away from Bulgaria's sea capital Varna. The resort is remarkable for its 6-km long beach. It has over 14 900 beds in 43 hotels (2 to 4 stars), situated at the very beach or at the picturesque nearby hills with exciting views of the sea and the “Balata” National Reserve. Hotels are equipped with all necessary modern facilities: cable TV, telephone lines, restaurants, bars, Internet cafes, medical services, rent-a-car, congress halls, swimming pools, sports services, etc. |

The holiday city has a number of tennis courts, bars, casino, restaurants with night shows, children playgrounds, swimming pools, and a golf playground. One can hire a bike, cars, cutters, sailboats, yachts, waterwheels and jets or give it a try with horse riding. The whole range of water sport facilities is on offer with instructors available for those in in need of them. There is an annual auto-rally called Albena and held at the beginning of May, a folk festival for singers and dancers from the Dobroudzha region, the Zlatnata Antena (Gold Antennae) Festival for TV programs, a bridge competition (in June), beach volleyball competition (in June or July), Vladimir Grashnov's Annual Football Tournament, etc. There is regular bus transport from Balchik, Varna, the Golden Sands resort and Dobrich to Albena, comlpemented by private minibuses, route and ordinary taxis, and even sea transport from and to the small port in the resort. |

A place of great interest is the Natural Reserve "Balata”, situated at the valley of the Batovska river with a territory of 183, 2 hectare. avorable combination of relief and specific microclimate – considerable sunshine from May to October, UV lights with favorable biological activity, air rich in iodine, bromine, flour, warm sea, ecologically clean environment - are excellent prerequisites for a calm and healthy holiday. Albena is the only Bulgarian resort that has own climate station, which is equipped with measurement techniques for all year round observations on the duration of the sun shine, biological effectiveness of ultra-violet factors (measured with SOLAR-UV-V-iometer), air temperature and humidity, type and quality of rains, direction and speed of the wind, sea water temperature.
