Between Ahtopol and Tsarevo on the Black Sea coast is Varvara. It belongs to the Tsarevo Municipality and further to Burgas province. It is also part of the Strandza Nature park. The population stayed nearly constant since many decades. Apparently, it increased only with 30 inhabitants between 1934 and 2005, namely from 220 to 250. However, there was a peak of 408 inhabitants in the year 1956. Probably the village is named after Saint Barbara.

In the 1970s and 1980s, it was an intellectual community of artists and writers. Many came to “The Sea Club” purchased by the Academy of Arts in Sofia. The group increased over the years and built a community based on their own real estate they had bought over there.

Nevertheless, the major sources of income were fishing next to tourism. there is also a Romani community and a famous diving area in the neighborhood named the “Dardanelles”.

Except for yet existing hotels bars and restaurants, many new projects are created as the building of a recent church but certainly also less religious constructions.

Lozenets (Bulgarian: Лозенец; also Lozenec, Lozenetz) is a village and seaside resort on the southern Bulgarian Black Sea Coast. It is part of Tsarevo Municipality, Burgas Province, and lies at 42°13′N 27°48′E. As of 2012, it has a population of 685 and the mayor is Maria Vasileva.

Lozenets was founded in 1924 by around 20 Bulgarian refugee families, originally from Eastern Thrace (mostly Peneka and Malak Samokov) who were initially put up in Poturnak (Velika), but moved to the seaside in search of better conditions. They settled in the Embelets or Ambelia area, where, according to the tradition, the old vineyards of Tsarevo (or even its oldest incarnation) used to be located. The first settlers lived by agriculture, stock breeding and woodcutting, with some later mastering sea fishing.

Beginning in the 1960s, nationwide and international sea tourism have radically changed the appearance of Lozenets and the occupation of the locals. Today, the village is a bustling tourist centre.

There is a villa zone to the south of the village. Several famous Bulgarians have built villas there. They include the actresses Anya Pencheva and Aneta Sotirova, the singer Beloslava, and members of parliament Zheni Zhivokova and Nikolay Nikolov.

In the villa zone near to Oasis beach, there is the Lalov Egrek watersports centre which has one of the largest diving centres in Europe.

Kiten (Bulgarian: Китен, meaning “lovely, pretty”) is a seaside resort town on the Bulgarian Black Sea Coast, part of Burgas Province. It is situated on the small Urdoviza peninsula, near the mouth of the Kiten River, and has two beaches: Atliman and Urdoviza.

Until the Balkan Wars in 1912–1913, there was only an unmanned pier used to export wood and charcoal on the site. Kiten was founded in 1931 by 30 families of Bulgarian refugees from Eastern Thrace who resettled there from the newly founded refugee village of Fazanovo. However, the area has roots from Antiquity, as amphoras from the 6th century BC were found on the south beach (Urdoviza). Kiten was declared a national resort in 1962, and since 1981 it had been administratively a quarter of nearby Primorsko. On 17 June 2005 the former village was proclaimed a separate town in order to more effectively cope with the growing number of tourists, primarily from Bulgaria, Romania, Czech Republic, Slovakia, Poland, Serbia, Russia and Germany (as of June 2005).
