Kamchia is a Black Sea coastal resort on the northern length of the coast of Bulgaria. It is located 25 km south of Varna. It is mainly made up of "rest bases", which are mini-resorts made up of individual villas and bungalows. There is also a functioning fishing village, and the remains of a military outpost, (now defunct). The resort has a transitional population which only remains for the summer season beginning in May and finishes at the end of September.
