Southern Fortress Wall and Tower
Excavated remains of the ancient Greek colony's defensive walls, dramatically positioned on the peninsula's cliff edge. Free to view and an evocative reminder that Sozopol was once the Greek city of Apollonia.

Sozopol Old Town
A rocky peninsula packed with dark timber houses from the 18th and 19th centuries overhanging the Black Sea. Free to wander and more atmospheric than its neighbor Nesebar, with art galleries in converted fishermen’s houses.

Two main beaches flanking the old town peninsula, with the southern Harmani Beach being the larger and more popular. Free access to a clean stretch of sand backed by dunes, without the mega-resort feel of other Black Sea towns.
