Cape Kaliakra

Kavarna is located in NE Bulgaria, close to the border with Romania.The thing is that i always drive by Kavarna on my way to Kaliakra or Kamen Briag. I remember beeing in Kavarna long time ago; stayed in a tent somewhere near the beach. Kavarna itself is nothing special -regular small city but has advantage to be at the seaside so there u go-beaches and suntanning.

About Kaliakra -Cape Kaliakra is from Kavarna (about 20 km or so).Kaliakra amazes me with great scenery-rough and dangerous cliffs, the sound of growling waves, the crazy wind.You feel so small and so fragile. Oh, the color of the sea is so blue!

You can't enter the gate with a car. Need to leave it at the parking. Also one need to pay a small fee to enter the cape. I don't know how much it is, because the guys working in the booth liked my friend and sister and let us for free...hehehe
