Black Sea

This is the Black Sea coast of Bulgaria. The pictures were shot in Krapetz, Northern Bulgaria. Krapetz is a small village with little more than 200 inhabitants. There is a wide, sandy beach nearby. A local entrepreneur has also built a hotel in the village center a couple of years ago. However, mass tourism has not reached this part of Bulgaria and the village has preserved its pristine character and looks so far.
