The northern Bulgarian Black Sea coast is more subdued than the resort towns to the south, but the modern-day seaside resorts on the Black Sea coast were definitely modeled after the very first resorts, which opened in the town of Saints Constantine and Helena in the early 20th century. Some of the resort towns along the coast are among the oldest towns in Bulgaria, having been founded over two millennia ago. The forefather of the modern-day seaside resort complex in Bulgaria was the purpose-built community of Golden Sands, which was opened to the public in the late 1950s. Four resort towns on the northern Black Sea coast are located north of the region`s largest city, Varna: Saints Constantine and Helena, Golden Sands, Albena, and Balchik.
