We are talking about free umbrellas and hammocks that will be available next summer. In a working meeting with representatives of the concessionaires it was reported that the measure has increased the number of beaches and they support the idea of maintaining this measure in the summer of 2021. This was stated by the Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Tourism Mariana Nikolova in the program ” New Sunday “. She also noted that concessionaires offer beach accessories free of charge and, in return, can benefit from a reduction in concession fees owed by up to 50%. And she assured that this will not affect the aquatic rescue activities in the strips. With a government decision this week, payments under the concession contracts have been reduced by almost BGN 7.9 million, the deputy prime minister also reported.
On World Tourism Day, September 27, Minister Nikolova thanked and congratulated the Bulgarians who, despite the difficulties and the pandemic situation, chose to rest in our country. More than 2.5 million compatriots have traveled to Bulgaria since the beginning of the year, and in comparison the foreign tourists are around 1.1 million. Almost 550 thousand are Bulgarians who visited the Black Sea resorts during the summer season, announced the press center of the Ministry of Tourism. .
We will rely on the Bulgarians to choose the winter resorts and to support the sector in the coming cold months, said the deputy prime minister. According to her, mountain tourism is very healthy and we should not worry about taking our children to winter resorts. She insisted that during the next season the control over the observance of the anti-epidemic measures in the places of accommodation will be uncompromising. I look forward to the observance of impeccable hygiene, both from hoteliers and tourists, added the Minister.
Regarding the measures taken by the government to support companies, the deputy prime minister explained that social measures are worth more than BGN 2.2 billion and that there must be stability to implement them. Outside analysts say we are financially sound and stable in a crisis, he said. And he commented that it is nothing serious to talk about resigning from a virus that raises so many unknowns.
