What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors praise the stunning panoramic views of the Bulgarian coast, especially on clear days extending to Sozopol. However, many highlight significant safety concerns due to the viewpoint's location on a busy road with no sidewalk and very limited parking, making access difficult and potentially dangerous.
"You can't park here by car. But you can drive 200 meters further and park in the pocket, and then walk."

"Access to the place is difficult, you can't park your car, it's a bit scary on foot because there is no sidewalk and you are on the highway. Once you are there, go up one bend about 300m and it's even better. But it's worth the walk, it gives a beautiful overview of Sunny Beach"

"Top spot for sightseeing on the southern Bulgarian seashore. The view goes to Sozopol on days with clear air. Veri tight space there, as it is reachable only by car (or bike) very few people can stop and enjoy the view in the same time. Otherwise, it is simply stunning 😍"
