Black Sea

About Black Sea

The Black Sea lies southeast of Europe. Clockwise from the west, it borders the following regions:

Bulgaria (Strandzha, Bulgarian Black Sea Coast)

Russia (Crimea, Krasnodar Krai)

Georgia (Northwestern Georgia, Southwestern Georgia)

Turkey (Black Sea Turkey, Marmara Region)

Most of the regions above are known for their beaches and resort towns. Turkey is an exception to a large extent; its warmer Mediterranean coast is much more famous.
