From Obzor, Bulgaria: Half-Day Black Sea Catamaran Cruise

From Obzor, Bulgaria: Half-Day Black Sea Catamaran Cruise

Following pick-up from your accommodation, you’ll be off and running on your journey to the harbor of Nessebar. A local, expert guide will take you on a tour of the historic port which is listed as UNESCO World Heritage Site. Enjoy some free time after the tour to explore the lively markets, discovering the streets and corners of the town, or simply relaxing in one of the many street cafes. Afterwards, you will gather at the harbor and board the catamaran for your departure at 2:00 PM. You will get a brief safety introduction and information about the route as you enjoy welcome drinks upon your arrival. Make use of the open bar, which serves coffee, tea, soft drinks, beer, and wine. Soon afterwards, the anchor will be dropped for swimming. There are masks and snorkels available and the crew will be happy to explain on how to use them. There’s plenty to see on the bottom of the sea — look out for crabs, fish, seahorses, and lots more. Once you are done and tuckered out from swimming, get some energy back during lunch — enjoy a meal of hot chicken dippers and dips, assorted salads, cold meats and cheeses, fresh bread, pate, and fresh fruit.  Sails will be set again after lunch as your journey across the bay continues. Keep your eyes peeled for dolphins en route to the harbour of Nessebar. After arrival back at the harbor at 6:00 PM, you’ll head back to Obzor via coach.

I took my family on this cruise and everyone enjoyed it, staff were so helpful, food and drinks superb! We even got to see dolphins which was amazing. Snorkel swim abit short i would of preferred longer but all in all I’m so glad I treated my family to this, we all had a brilliant time. Lovely views from the boat and treated like VIPs. Nesebar old town tour was short and interesting and we got free time which was great. Thank you to all the staff for a great experience!!

It was another fantastic day. Nessebar is always worth a visit. The catamaran tour was perfect. The staff on the ship were very attentive, helpful and friendly. The weather was great too. Cooling off in the sea was a lot of fun and we even saw dolphins. It was our time tour and I would book it again at any time. The price is absolutely OK for the transport, the city tour and the wonderful experience on the boat. Thank you for the perfect day. We will be back...

5 out of 5 stars

Great day out, very well organised & we would highly recommend. From the collection from Obzor, journey to Nessebar, free time & then the Catamaran - all top class. The staff were so lovely & we couldn’t have asked for more - the swimming in the sea was perfect - the food was really good & the staff were so attentive. Drinks were flowing & r loved our day. Loved watching the sails out to get back to Nessabar too.

4 out of 5 stars

Great trip, great city tour in Nessebar with free time afterwards. The catamaran trip was a real experience, but I have to take one star off because we were told there would be big dolphins and we didn't see any anywhere. And when snorkeling you hardly saw any fish at this spot. Otherwise great!
