It lies in the skirts of the eastern part of the Stara Planina Mountain with the mountain ridge raising to the west of the city and the Dvoynitsa river bounding it to the north. The beach of Obzor is followed by a small nestling cove and a beach named Irakli after an ancient village of the same name. The St. Nikola cape is several kilometers further to the south where the Balkan Mountains slope into the Black Sea. The beach line in Obzor is the largest one on the Black Sea coast. The shore is low and sandy with a fully open horizon to the east. The sea is calm and it is perfect for swimming, surfing and water skiing. The origins of Obzor, which the ancient Greeks knew as Heliopolis ("town of the sun"), can be seen in the small park which is lined with columns and statuary fragments from a Roman temple to Jupiter which once graced the spot. The Romans also built a fortress in the vicinity to protect their sea trading routes between Constantinople and the Danube. Medieval Bulgarians constructed their own Kozyak fortress nearby.
