Which option should you choose for your arrival?
Choose a taxi for a direct onward transfer, or use the bus connection if you are comfortable changing stations in Burgas.

With the bus route, keep the two Burgas stations distinct: No. 15 goes to Central Bus Station, while Sunny Beach services depart from South Bus Station. Check how you will make the connection before relying on a particular departure.
