On June 1 the beaches will be ready to welcome tourists. I hope that the tourist season will start on this date, Bulgaria’s Minister of Tourism Nikolina Angelkova said. The capacity of the tourist facilities may be reduced by 30% to 50% due to the requirement for bigger distance between tables, umbrellas and chaise-longues. Currently, 1 umbrella and two chaise-longues cover an area of 16 square meters and we want to expand the area to 20 square meters, Minister Angelkova specified. We will make a list of the Bulgarian beaches and the conditions of use, so that everyone who wants to visit a given tourist place knows what the conditions are. Minister Nikolina Angelkova commented further.
