Aheloy

Aheloy ( _bg. Ахелой) is a village and seaside resort in Burgas Province, eastern Bulgaria. As of 2006 it has 2,175 inhabitants. It is situated on the Bulgarian Black Sea Coast between the major port of Burgas to the north and the bustling tourist centres Nesebar, Slanchev Bryag and Sveti Vlas to the north. One of the bloodiest battles in the Middle Ages occurred near the village in 917 when the Bulgarian Emperor Simeon I completely routed the Byzantine army. More than 90,000 men perished in the battle, 70,000 of whom were Byzantines.

The Aheloy River flows into the Black Sea south of the village.
