Bulgaria moves to reform law on managing Black Sea beaches ‘to improve quality of tourist service’
Bulgaria’s outgoing Cabinet approved on December 28 amendments to the Black Sea Coast Spatial Planning Act that, if approved, would change the system for classification of beaches.
The amendments have been proposed by Bulgaria’s Tourism Ministry.
They are intended to enable the grouping and classification of beaches according to their geographical features – in the words of a government statement – and the types of tourist service that may be provided on the beaches.

Our plan is to divide beaches by functionality into four groups and four subgroups thereunder”.
