Burgas

Burgas is Bulgaria’s second-largest city on the Black Sea coast and the fourth-largest in the country, home to over 210,000 people. Situated in the region of Northern Thrace, it’s a dynamic hub blending industry, transport, and culture. While a popular summer destination, Burgas offers a more lived-in, authentic Bulgarian experience than some of the more heavily touristed coastal towns.

The city is strategically located on Burgas Bay, surrounded by the scenic Burgas Lakes. It’s a key economic centre, boasting Bulgaria’s second-largest port and airport, as well as a major oil refinery and a thriving fishing industry. This makes Burgas well-connected and provides a diverse, relatively affordable cost of living – appealing factors for digital nomads seeking a base on the Black Sea.
