This is the biggest natural lake in Bulgaria with a surface area of 2760 ha. The site is one of the four lakes of the Bourgas wetland complex. It is a firth with insignificant seasonal and annual fluctuations of the water level. The most extensive reedbeds in Bulgaria surround this IBA site. The lake is situated along Via Pontica migratory route and is an important stopover and feeding place for many migrating waterfowl, birds of prey and passerines.
It has also been a Ramsar site since 2002. Being brackish, the waters of Bourgas Lake do not freeze in winter. That is why tens of thousands of waterfowl spend the cold months here. This is one of the most important areas for the wintering Dalmatian Pelicans, Pygmy Cormorants and White-headed Ducks in Bulgaria. The lake supports also numerous congregations of divers, grebes, Great Egrets, White-fronted Geese, Pochards, Tufted Ducks, Smews, gulls etc.
