Varna is one of the Best Spots to Dive in Bulgaria. It is already well-known among tourists for its Grade A white sand beaches, but it has recently become a diving hotspot as well. The buried ancient Roman port is one of the most popular dive locations here. It's only 12 meters below the surface, and low-level licensed divers can do it.

Because it's roughly 40 kilometers outside of Varna, a boat dive is required, as most dives in the area may be done from the shore. Divers have discovered ancient items dating back 3,000 years along the shore. Stories of Alexander the Great's treasures being buried there will definitely circulate.

Varna's vibrant nightlife and sulfuric spas and baths along the coast further add to the city's appeal. Varna is gradually becoming one of, if not the best, places to dive in the Black Sea.

Mopang was a cargo ship of the Sub Boats type (EFC Design 1023) built by the Submarine Boat Co shipyard in Newark, New Jersey in 1920. After hitting a mine at the port of Burgas, near St.Ivan island, the ship sank on June 30, 1921. Now it is one of the Best Spots to Dive in Bulgaria.

The Mopang is an American cargo steamship that lies between 22 and 32 meters on its starboard side. Apart from the bow section, which absorbed the brunt of an explosion, the wreck is in excellent condition. The cargo of footwear and replacement parts may be seen in the hold, and certified divers can enter some of the cabins. The superstructure of the ship reaches 10 meters above the seabed.

Burgas (or Bourgas) is Bulgaria's second-largest city along the Black Sea and fourth-largest city overall. Burgas has become one of the Best Spots to Dive in Bulgaria, as it is largely utilized as a transit point for non-diving tourists to smaller resort towns north and south of it along the coast.

Long expanses of mostly vacant beaches, attractive and well-kept beachfront parks, and extremely reasonable lodging alternatives for the budget-conscious traveler can all be found there. It's the ideal location for a long diving vacation.

Outside of the city, there are four lakes where bird enthusiasts congregate. They aren't strictly fit for diving, but they are ideal for a refreshing dip in the sea.
