Location and distances
The history of the Kamchia area dates back to ancient times. Archaeological findings indicate settlement as early as Antiquity – Roman artifacts and medieval fortifications have been discovered here. During the Roman and Byzantine periods, the mouth of the Kamchia River was an important port and trading post. During the Middle Ages, the river served as a natural boundary between the various regions of the First and Second Bulgarian States. Caravans carrying trade goods from the interior to the sea passed through it.
About the Kamchia manor – character and atmosphere
In 1951, a reserve farm was established near the Kamchia River, and in 1977 UNESCO included the Kamchia Biosphere Reserve in the World Network of Biosphere Reserves. More than 40 bird species, 14 fish species, and hundreds of plant species thrive here – some of which are endemic. The unique „longan“ forest – a wet coastal forest with willows, poplars, ash trees, and oaks, surrounded by lianas – is one of the last in Europe. In the 1980s, Kamchia also developed as a holiday destination – the International Youth Center „Kamchia“ (now functioning as a complex) and a series of holiday facilities were built here.
Today Kamchia It is the perfect place for people who want a property in a unique natural environment near the sea. The Kamchia beach – over 6 km long with fine sand and shallow calm waters – is particularly attractive for families with children. The protected status of the reserve limits new construction, making properties in the area rare and keeping their value stable. The area is a perfect choice for a villa property, a holiday home, an investment in Airbnb or a hotel business.
