If that isn't enough to fill your days, then how about visiting one of the two water parks in Sunny Beach! These water parks are ideal for everyone, even the biggest of kids. With lazy rivers to float down and relax to massive water slides that make you scream all the way down, these are truly not to be missed so save a day for a visit!

The whole resort lights up, and there is a definite hum of happy holiday makers and people enjoying themselves to be found. Parts of Sunny Beach can become very lively at night, so, if you are travelling with small children or want a relaxing evening, try one of the local tavernas or beach front venues for a more relaxed, welcoming environment, fantastic food and a good laugh with the local people! Or maybe head to Khan's Tent, where you can indulge in a delicious four-course meal before being entertained with fantastic live music, and entertainment to rival the West End, these shows always sell out fast, so be sure to ask your representative in resort about booking this fabulous evening as soon as possible!
