Project Description
Maslen nos (Bulgarian Маслен нос) is a cape on the Black Sea, in southeastern Bulgaria. Maslen nos is the southernmost point of Burgas Bay.
This Cape is the easternmost point of the Saddle Mountain beach which ends here on a peninsula (north-south extent: about 4 km, east-west distance about 3 km) and projecting into the Black Sea. Immediately on the Cape is a steep rocky coast into the sea. Viewed from the north Maslen nos recalls the outline of a lion’s head – not to be confused with the rock band “lion head” on the river Ropotamo.
On the cape is the chapel Sveti Nikola. Two miles north from the Cape Maslen nos is Cape Karaultasch.
