Ravda is much more laid back than Sunny Beach. Its own beach is lovely with soft, almost white sand and a prominade strtching into the sea. Lots of small and inexpensive restaurants and taverns offering local seafood and traditional cuisine. In addition to the many traditional tavernas found in the area, there are upmarket Cafe bars such as Europe, Hawaii & Face in the main street and Rixos in the square.
Regular bus services from the square (8am - midnight) will take you to three distinctly different destinations: Sunny Beach (bus fare about 75p) with its long beaches and everything from Bungee jumping to McDoanalds. Old Nessebar (bus fare around 45p) is a world heritage site steeped in history - many good restaurants and shopping. Although a city, Bourgas has a huge park which leads down to the sea.
Aquaparadise Water Park -just outside Ravda is a new water park built on a castle theme with huge slides such as the Tsunami and black hole. Children's slides great pools.
