Tsonevo Reservoir (Bulgarian: язовир Цонево) is a reservoir in eastern Bulgaria, located in the valley of the river Luda Kamchiya. Administratively, it lies in Dalgopol Municipality of Varna Province. In 1975 it was named after the politician Georgi Traykov, a longtime leader of Bulgarian Agrarian National Union and that name remains in official use, along with Tsonevo.
