Raiski Zaliv (Paradise Bay) is nestled among rocks to the south of the town, while further southwards are the Kavatsite beach and camping site. The Harmanite Beach is immediately to the south of the so-called 'new town', amongst these coves and beaches the boom in the Bulgarian property and overseas property investment market continues to grow at a rapid pace, with new developments like Santa Marina and The Cape Saint Stefan being built to accommodate the thousands of buyers looking for property in this delightful part of Bulgaria's Black sea coast.
