| Local chartlet |
Tzarevo is just 15nM north of the border with Turkey so it is the prefered port of entry when sailing N or going back S.
Underwater archaeological surveys off the coast of Tzarevo have discovered amphoras from the Late Antiquity (4th–6th century) and import red-polished pottery made in Constantinople, Syria and North Africa, which indicates prospering trade in the area at the time. The city's southern peninsula has remains of a medieval fortress.

The approach to Tsarevo is straight forward and its N-S breakwater can be easily seen from a distance.
Caution: Take care entering the bay, there are reefs to the south and to the north. The reef to the south is marked, but it extends beyond the marker. The end of the breakwater is marked with a white tower.
Check-in facilities (for Customs and Immigration)
Tsarevo is a port of entry to Bulgaria. Immigration officials are available around the clock, or “non-stop” as they say in Bulgaria. Customs officials work from 8 AM till 8 PM, making it difficult to clear out early enough to make the mouth of the Bosporus in daylight hours, an 82 nm trip. In some cases they will make special arrangements to clear out around 7 PM with the promise that everyone stays aboard until departure.
On arrival proceed to the customs dock behind the breakwater. If the officials do not arrive, hail them on VHF channel 16.
See also Bulgaria.
Berthing Options
The harbour is largely open to the south, but shelter can be found in winds from other directions. The breakwater, behind which the customs dock is located, provides good protection from northerly and westerly winds.
Mooring fees are reported to be high.
