Pomorie

Pomorie is a modern city about 18 kilometers south of Nessebar. Pomorie used to have buildings similar to Nessebar. Only a small portion of them can still be seen today, as the majority were destroyed in a massive fire in 1906. Not to worry, Pomorie has something else that makes it a must-see when visiting Bulgaria's seaside! It is well-known for its rare bird sightings and mud treatments. Pomorie Lake, located not far from the city, has a 70% salt concentration (4 times higher than that of the Black Sea). This lake's mud has been used for bathing since the time of the Romans. Its properties appear to help with a variety of joint pains.

As previously stated, Pomorie is a popular destination for birdwatchers, with approximately 200 bird species congregating around the lake. There are also endangered species such as the pygmy cormorant and the Dalmatian pelican. The latter has curly feathers and is the largest of the pelican species. Pomorie has a variety of attractions, entertainment venues, historical sites, museums, and monuments. There is something for everyone - kids clubs, sports attractions, beach sports, and so on. The most popular cultural attractions are "The Historical Museum," "The Museum of Salt," the architectural reserve "Old Pomorie Houses," "St George" monastery and other churches, the Ancient tomb, and so on.
