I usually visit Lesvos in spring, taking advantage of flight/hotel packages for me and (non bird-watcher) wife.
This year I fancy a change apart from current impossibility of getting any info on what's on offer in Lesvos.
Please can anybody recommend a destination in Bulgaria for a week or two that is "good" but where it is not necessary to drive miles every day. The beauty of Lesvos is that staying in a place like Skala Kalloni one has close access to some of the best bird spots on the island, and some manage without car hire.
Is there anywhere comparable in Bulgaria? I'm not too bothered about listing, done all that, though "ticks" are always welcome, and most of my time I'd be stuck behind a video camera viewfinder which inhibits charging about the place anyway although I'd expect to hire a car.
A flight/hotel package along the lines of what First Choice/Thomson should be offering for Lesvos would be ideal provided one didn't end up in somewhere like the Costa Brava (or Blackpool!)
