The most popular city for German retirees in Bulgaria — right on the sea
Varna is the undisputed number one destination for German retirees in Bulgaria. This Black Sea port city combines a mild climate, affordable property, excellent healthcare and the largest German-speaking expat network in the country. If you love the sea, this is your ideal retirement destination.
Varna is home to more permanently resident Germans than any other Bulgarian city — with established clubs, social meet-ups and a strong sense of mutual support.
Over 280 sunny days per year, warm Black Sea summers and mild winters make Varna climatically more appealing than many parts of Germany.
Two major hospitals, numerous private clinics and several German-speaking doctors ensure solid healthcare coverage.
Varna is cheaper than Sofia — while maintaining a high quality of life. Excellent value for retirees on a fixed income.
