Traveller notes on Sunny Beach in March

Other months in Sunny Beach

Sunny Beach's forum calls the first half of August reliably hot, with the back half cooling off enough at night that a light jacket is worth having. Regulars note the weather can still surprise you — some Augusts bring a run of heavy downpours lasting a few hours, even in what's normally the driest stretch of summer.
