Golf Destination Overview Bulgaria sits at the crossroads of Europe and Asia and resembles a miniature continent because of its varied relief and miraculous working of nature. Lying in the Northeastern part of the Balkan Peninsula, Bulgaria boasts a vibrant 1,300- year history. The country is rich in beautiful diverse landscapes – long sandy beaches, green fertile valleys, wild mountain ranges, rivers, gorges, and natural springs. Summers are long and warm with rich colors and scents of the fields and harvests of organic fruits and vegetables. The beaches are extensive and surrounded by rocky coves and inlets encompassing the idyllic serene waters of the Black Sea. The winters are snowy, making the country a wonderland for winter vacations with skiing in the mountains, relaxing by the log fires, or strolling through snow blanketed pine forests. Bulgaria is an interesting and intriguing experience for anyone: for those who love the warm sea or snow-covered slopes, for those who want to see its cultural and historic monuments, or for those who wish to delight in its unique and living folklore. Young people fond of sports, families with children, retirees, and anyone seeking a carefree holiday can all find activities that suit their needs. In short, Bulgaria has something for everyone in the form of an all year round unspoiled playground ready to be discovered by those adventurous in spirit, but not wanting to stray too far from the central hub of Europe.The Eastern Bulgarian coast is washed by the Black Sea – 380 km marvelous stretch of beaches, calm and safe sea, clear water and healthy air, fine golden sand and natural dunes. The Bulgarian Black Sea coast is a magnet for millions of Bulgarians and foreign visitors every year. The welcoming climate from late May to late September with average air temperatures of 28°Celsius (82°Fahrenheit) and sea temperatures of 25°Celsius (77°Fahrenheit) and the modern resorts are becoming increasingly popular each year. The Black Sea coast is also one of the best Spa areas in the country where the combination

of sea climate, mineral baths, hot springs, and curative mud adds to the possibilities of holiday enjoyment.Kaliakra is a beautiful cape close to the Romanian border and not far from Balchik. Usually, it is the final stop of foreign tourists looking for breathtaking sights and interesting places to the north of Varna. The cape stretches 2 km deep into the sea and consists of 60-70m-high limestone rocks, the inaccessibility of which has been the main reason for the construction of an ancient fortress named Tirisis there. Thracians, Romans, Byzantines and Bulgarians successively used the fortress. According to legends, the fortress was guarding the treasuries of Lyzimah, successor of Alexander the Great. Today there are quite many remains of those ancient settlements, which can be seen, exhibited in a small museum. One can also read there a legend telling the story of several Bulgarian girls who chose to jump from the high cape into the sea but not to be captured and converted to Islam by the Turks. The three Signature Championship golf courses Lihghthouse, BlackSeaRama and Thracian Cliffs chose to be named after this magnificent bay – Cape Kaliakra Signature Golf Coast.
