There is a bus timetable at each bus stop. It is not so easy to get to the right bus without being late. First, you need to calculate the approximate arrival time of your bus at the stop. A timetable shows the time of its departure from the starting point. Secondly, if the bus is full, it may not even enter New Nessebar. Lastly, the buses can be half an hour late, or early. If there is no one waiting at a bus stop, a bus passes by.
