In Sunny Beach, the foreign tourists are mostly from Poland, Romania, Czechia and Hungary. However, they are very few in number for the high capacity of the resort. In the central parts of the resort the eating and drinking establishments stand empty, and some of the owners are worried that they will not be able to survive until the end of the season with this number of tourists.  

There are 40 hotels working in the biggest resort on Bulgaria’s Black Sea coast, and their staff outnumber the tourists. There is no one to use the beach beds and umbrellas, the central promenades are empty of people.
