The region is generally hilly and along the river valleys of Kamchia and Provadiyska, it is plain. The seashore has wide stripes of sand towards which wooded mountain slopes run down in terraces. The coastal line is shaped by the bays of Varna, Kamchia and Sveti Yani as well as the promontories of Galata and Cherni (Black). The area is rich in ground and karst water. There are two firth lakes beside the sea - Varna and Beloslavsko, connected in 1923 by a navigable canal.
