Apart from the fact that it functions as a connection between the old and the new parts of the town, the isthmus is also a preferred place for strolls of the guests and the citizens of Nesebar. There are pedestrian alleys on both sides of the isthmus, close to the sea. The wind-mill that stands in the middle of the isthmus is another symbol of the town.
The new part of Nesebar also offers various accommodation opportunities. The buildings of the town administration and many institutions are situated there. The north and the south beaches of Nesebar lie in the new part of the town. There is a beach in Old Nesebar, but it is a small one. Those who seek more excitement and entertainment can have a helicopter tour over Nesebar. In addition to that boat rides and various opportunities for water sports are available at the beaches of the resort. The numerous restaurants in the town vary in category and price. The romantic souls would prefer the restaurants in the Old Town, while young people would have more fun in the new part of Nesebar and the nearby resort of Slanchev bryag (Sunny Beach).
