Golden Sands

As its name implies, beach of fine, golden sand is 3.5 kilometres long and in certain places, 100 metres wide. Here you can while away the hours in guaranteed sunshine from May through to October. Summers are long and warm - with average temperatures of up to 27° C in the high season, tempered by a mild, refreshing sea breeze. The water, too, is a pleasant 24° C during the July-August period.

The resort offers plenty of opportunity to discover the local folklore - local food and drink accompanied by traditional song and dance, haunting melodies, colourful costumes, live entertainment to suit all tastes and unforgettable customs (such as fire dancing - barefoot across burning coals).

Golden Sands is an ideal resort for all ages - whether you're single, in a couple, married with children, retired or travelling in a group, there is something for everyone. There is a good selection of comfortable hotels, small guesthouses and private accommodation.

If you are after an active holiday the resort is perfect for windsurfing, paragliding, water skiing, sailing and all manner of both indoor and outdoor sports. There are numerous swimming pools, tennis courts, bridle ways, cycle paths, a bowling alley, facilities for table tennis, volleyball and basketball, and plenty of fun for the kids. Golden Sands is also rich in mineral springs and health and fitness facilities.

The quality of the seawater, sand and air is monitored monthly to ensure that your stay here will benefit from the high standards. Golden Sands is, in fact, located in a beautiful National park - Golden Sands, where environment friendly is the understatement. Here you can catch a ride in a solar energy powered taxi or miniature train or do your bit for the environment by taking a rickshaw or hiring a bike!
