About Renting a Car at Varna Airport
Varna Airport is just a couple of kilometers from the city center and is the natural starting point for a car trip along Bulgaria's Black Sea coast. From here, you can reach Zlatni Pyasatsi, the Golden Sands, in just 15 minutes' drive north along the coastal road, while the charming coastal town of Balchik with its cliff gardens and the famous botanical palace awaits after an additional 30 minutes. Drive south toward Sunny Beach and Nessebar, a UNESCO-protected old town on a peninsula, in approximately two hours via E87.
Inside Varna city, you'll find Bulgaria's oldest gold treasure at the archaeological museum and a long beach promenade along the Black Sea. The summer season from June through September offers warm and sunny weather, perfect for exploring both the coast and the rolling inland landscape toward the Dobruja region's plains.
