The real story of Kaliakra Cape is hidden under the veil of various legends. One of them says that the typical red color of the rocks comes from the blood of the defenders of the citadel spilled in a fight. Other narrates that the treasures of Lizimah, successor of Alexander the Great have been hidden in a cave under the sea level.
During the Turkish invasion the fortress was subject to an extremely cruel siege. All warriors and citizens of the fortress were murdered. Only 40 young maids were left alive. They decided to choose death to life in disgrace. When no one was watching them they plaited together their long hair, held their hands and jumped into the sea from the high cliffs. We shall finish the tour visiting the Mussel farm 'Dulboka' - gorgeous restaurant with delicious meals from fresh mussels. Anything from the soup to the dessert. If you like sea food I promise you will not be disappointed! Member discount: Notes: My price is 10 Euro per hour + petrol costs (air-conditioned car).
