This is a sensational town. My family and I rented a luxurious apartment for our vacation. It had a phenomenal sea view, elegant rooms and mountain bikes to go on cycling trips. I recommend this town for the perfect holiday.

During my stay in this town, I visited the Barova beach. It was so beautiful and splendid. The waters were turquoise blue and warm. I enjoyed swimming in its waters. The weather was perfect for sunbathing.
