The cape is located about 60 km from Varna on the Dobrudzhan plateau. It is included in the list of the hundred most picturesque sights of Bulgaria. On its territory is a nature reserve. The cliffs of the cape rise 70 meters above the sea, protecting the bay from cold winds. The legend of 40 girls who rushed to the Black Sea in order not to be captured by the Ottoman Turks is associated with this place.

A nice area to walk and see some stunning sea views and some of the old ruins and statues based there. We went on a Sunday, and it was full of locals and tourists, but this didn't really hamper the experience, even if some of the walk ways are .. Read more »

Ruins of a large Bulgarian fortress. Fantastic views! Small musrum and a nice restaurant at the place. Has a convenient parking lot. Access by road is very easy. Better visit this place when temperatures are below 30 deg. C.

Caliacra cape is a wonderful natural monument. The road up there is wonderful,with many wind turbines on both sides. The view is amazing. A place that must be visited if you are passing by. There is also a restaurant and souvenir shops.

One of my favourite places at the Bulgarian sea side. I read a lot of negative reviews here, and it seems like pointless complaints in my opinion. “There are just rocks”, “There is no shade”, “I didn’t find it that.. Read more »

We were just transiting the area, saw reviews about it. Wast area to explore. Stairs down the rocks by the restaurant. Intriguing caves. We arrived by sunset, wish we had more time to spend here.

It's a beautiful place to see if you can make a little detour. It can get a little windy, but the scenery is breathtaking.

It's an amazing spot to spend a few hours exploring the cape and the ruins of the old fortress. Good restaurant with an awesome view over the sea, and a few souvenir merchants offering local products. Parking is available but is limited. Have fu.. Read more »

Probably the best place I have visited in Bulgaria. There is only one thing I disliked and it’s the towers on the top of the cape, which make it look bad. The view is really good though.

A must see for history enthusiasts, picture hunters, and tourists alike. Plenty of opportunity to learn more about local history and some beautiful views along the way. Restaurant located in the reserve if you so desire to go for a bite to eat.

This place has some special energy around it. Beautiful and majestic, it keeps centuries long history. You will not only see breathtaking panoramic views of the sea from high above, but also can visit a small museum in a cave with remains from naval .. Read more »

Pretty awesome place to visit as some of the ruins date back to Roman times and if you make the effort to walk all the way to the end of the trail you will get to an amazing spot for photos. Additionally there is a small free museum and a restaurant .. Read more »

Nice to see if you are in the region. A small entry tax should be paid for a parking and museum entrance. In July 2022 the tax was 6 levs. There is a restaurant inside with a great sea view.

Beautiful view! It’s worth visiting and it’s one of the best places in Northeastern Bulgaria. The only irrelevant thing is the memorial of some random Russian admiral having battle around the cape before 300 years. Has nothing to do with .. Read more »

Great place to come and relax and obviously see if you haven't been to. Allow yourself at least 3-4 hours and bring comfortable shoes

Nice place with a beautiful view. We were lucky and we saw a dolphin swimming in the sea :) They also have some medieval ruins and a restaurant. Note: you have to pay a 2$ fee/person to visit.

Awesome place to visit, then I was there , wasn't very busy, and the sunset was just awesome. There are a few parking places, and you can walk after you park the car. You can go with the car just on top, after 20:00 pm. If you are in the area it.. Read more »

Great scenery. Caves and ruins from an era long gone. You can also eat there. The waiters are slow. (I think it's a thing with Bulgaria)

Very beautiful place.. incredible landscape and wonderful ruins. You gotta pay a entry ticket. It could be perfect without the little souvenir shops.. or maybe just one at the entrance.

A geographical and a historicaly shaped area placed into Bulgarian folklore you definitely should visit. Nice restaurant will offer you a delicious mussel soup but not only.. and really awesome sea view.

This is one of the iconic places in the Bulgarian Nord seacoast. If offers sunning views and a lot of history. You'll be able to find exceptional spots to watch the sunset and experience the long summer days. There is a museum and a restaurant w.. Read more »

Cool place to visit, but not a lot to see - the ancient ruins, a restaurant, a museum (supposedly), the views, a military base (from the outside only). Be careful with the edges. Be sure to visit the nearby Bolata beach when passing through here.

Very nice to visit. You feel like you are in Irland. Astonishing cliffs.

It's historic place for me but told with wrong words. It's a place with a magnificent view but this is not the hole story. It's a place where 40 woman's sacrifice there lives for they're faith of God.

A place filled with history. An amazing scenery and a view to the dazzling sea. You can even notice how the water of the sea is a different colour around the cape. It has many view points from the rocks and ancient building leftovers on the inside. I.. Read more »

The views are good. There is not much to see but it is worth going to have a drink at the restaurant that it is at the end of the walk way and enjoy the views.

Amazing place that should be in all tourism add for Bulgária. With a huge potencial for study and tourism if only properly maintained. Sad that it isn't. Still it is a unique place in history and in Bulgaria.

Good place to visit if you are interested in archeology. The walk to the cape itself from the parking is 15/20min around 1km. The view from the cape to the sea is breathtaking. There is a restaurant near the end of the walk, pretty expensive tho. Sum.. Read more »
