Ukoliko se odlučite da godišnji odmor za vreme leta provedete na Crnom moru u Bugarskoj donećete pravu odluku. Cene su najpristupačnije u regionu, a to znači, ukusnija hrana, više atrakcije, luksuza i uživancije. Bugarska se u poslednjih par godina totalno promenila u ugostiteljskom smislu reči, pa stari turisti prosto ne mogu da je prepoznaju.

Kratak tekst o Zlatnim pjascima na Crnom moru u Bugarskoj za sezonu 2012 potkrepljen sa puno fotografija možete pročiti u donjem tekstu:

Golden Sands (Bulgarian: Златни пясъци, Zlatni pyasatsi; German: Goldstrand, Russian: Золотые пески, Zolotyye peski; Hungarian: Aranyhomok; Romanian: Nisipurile de aur; Polish: Złote piaski; Czech: Zlaté Písky; Finnish: Kultahietikko; French:Sables d'or, Italian: Sabbia Dorata) is a seaside resort town on the northern Bulgarian Black Sea Coast, adjacent to a national park of the same name in the municipality of Varna.

Located 17 km north of downtown Varna, it is virtually connected to the city by a continuous swath of resorts and villa communities. It is a popular tourist destination, drawing many visitors from Germany, the United Kingdom, Russia, Scandinavia, France, Central and Eastern Europe, the Persian Gulf, Israel, and other countries, attracted by the favourable climate, scenic landscape, and reasonable prices.

Golden Sands is served by the Varna International Airport and several regular bus lines of the Varna public transit system.

The old-growth forests between ancient Odessos and Dionysopolis were first mentioned by Pliny as the home of mythical dwarfs, visited by the Argonauts. Byzantine sources name the local fortress Gerania; there are 4-7 century AD remains of massive stone ramparts and a basilica along the edge of the Frangen plateau. The cave Aladzha Monastery, 3 km to the west, was a monastic centre from antiquity through the Second Bulgarian Empire. In the days of Ottoman Empire, Uzunkum (Turkish: long sands) was known as a hideaway for outlaws. It was largely uninhabited until the 1950s, although used for outings.

The area is labelled to have the purest quartz sand on the coast and abound in old trees, landscaped parks, and pedestrian zones. Hot mineral water springs and lush woodlands cascading from the Frangen Plateau, forming the Golden Sands Nature Park, turn the town into one of the most popular tourist spots in Eastern Europe. It also comprises the Holiday Club Riviera luxury resort, several villa communities including Panorama, Chaika, Kabakum, and Alen Mak, and the historic grotto of Aladzha Monastery in the vicinity. A contemporary chapel of John the Baptist was recently added. Just north is perhaps the best known gay beach in the nation. Three 18-hole golf courses designed by Gary Player and Ian Woosnam are currently (2007) being developed around Balchik and Kavarna a short drive to the north.
