ABOUT THE TOWN OF AHTOPOL
The town of Ahtopol (population: 1364) is 87 km south-east of Bourgas, and 477 km south-east of Sofia. It is situated on a sharply jutted cape at the foot of the mountain of Strandja. This particular place on the Bulgarian Black Sea coast has the highest number of sunny and hot days during the season. The water trends to be warmer (around 25oC) and more placid. The beach, covered with fine sand is 2 km long. The town is a much-preferred resort by families, intellectuals, people in search of quiet and solitude. Ahtopol is a suitable place for a vacation for those on a budget.

HISTORY
The name of the town has been preserved since ancient times. It is built at the place of a Tracian settlement. The Romans called it Peronticus. The town was colonized in 6 entury before Christ. The Byzantine leader Agaton restored the town after the barbarian invasions and gave it its own name Agatopolis (“City of Happiness”), which the Bulgarians took it in turns.
At the end of 14 th century the Turks conquered it and called it Ahtenbolu. It was burnt down and devastated by sea pirates many a time. In 1912 it was burnt down again. The present day town was built anew.
