Today we are heading to the Black Sea Coast, where we find new, beautiful beaches and blue waters which are not very deep at the shore and whose temperature can exceed 25 degrees C in high season. The Romanian Black Sea Coast offers a wide range of opportunities for treatment and relaxation, with some of the resorts having a very active nightlife. From the seaside, you can take day trips to Dobrogea or the Danube Delta.
Ștefan Necula, the director of the litoralulromânesc.ro tour operator, says that the Black Sea Coast is one of the most beautiful places in Romania, an international destination, where the infrastructure in most of the resorts has improved significantly in recent years. On the other hand, this destination is for everyone, being ideal for relaxation, spa treatment, parties or visiting special museums.
Ștefan Necula: The southern Black Sea Coast begins with the Eforie Nord and Eforie Sud resorts, whose beaches have also been extended this year. The beaches of other resorts will also be extended in the coming period. A lot of facilities are included. The Black Sea Coast is a very suitable destination for families with children, because we have many resorts prepared for kids. They will find different attractions such as swimming pools, well-equipped playgrounds with various inflatables, which can also be located on the beach. On the Black Sea Coast visitors will find water parks, which also provide various facilities for children, a Dolphinarium, and an Aquarium. Also, the Black Sea Coast resorts boast clubs that are among the most famous in Europe. In addition to these, we have attractions in the south of the coast that are unique, such as the Archaeological Museum of Mangalia. There is also the Museum of History in Constanța which exhibits unique works. There are different types of relaxation, and let’s not forget the spa centers and the spa treatments that tourists can benefit from on the Romanian Black Sea Coast.
On the Romanian Black Sea Coast, you will find SPA offers that include jacuzzi, dry sauna, infrared sauna, wraps, relaxation massages, anti-cellulite massages, all of which are complemented by fitness rooms. Balneo, rheumatic, anti-stress, detox and slimming treatments are carried out under the careful supervision of a doctor and therapists. On the other hand, the sapropelic mud from Techirghiol is known not only in Romania, but also throughout the world, for its real healing properties for many severe or milder ailments. The offer of the Romanian Black Sea Coast also includes the exploration of unique areas, as well as festivals.
Ștefan Necula is back at the microphone with more: “More and more festivals are being organized on the Black Sea Coast. This year, the season started on May 1 with festivals that are already in their 10thedition. And they continue throughout the season. We also have a very big festival, NeverSea, which is already famous and is very much in demand with tourists. There are other smaller festivals that are just as interesting for customers. Then the main attraction is the Danube Delta, where day trips can be organized and where tourists can benefit from the local services of those who own boats there. It would be better to use the small boats, which can carry ten people and enter canals that are usually not accessed by most people. There they can see untouched corners of nature, with vegetation and birds that only come to the Danube Delta in the summer season. Also, during these trips, different places around Dobrogea can be visited. We know that Dobrogea is a multicultural area. There are many ethnic groups here, living in harmony for centuries, and this brings more colour to the area and renders it a special meaning. On these trips, tourists can enjoy specific meals, from fish dishes to Tatar specialties. There are many options, really, to get to know Dobrogea in the true sense of the word.
Most of the tourists interested in the Romanian coast come from the European Union. Most of the time, they decide to visit Romania thanks to the Romanians they interact with in their countries of residence. Probably most tourists come from Italy and Spain. We can also talk about a country that is now no longer in the European Union, Great Britain, but which is also a source of tourists interested in the Romanian seaside. I think the most important thing is that we have a constant flow of foreign tourists. Honestly, in terms of their feedback, it’s always been positive. They’ve seen that Romanian people are welcoming, they are very good hosts, and visitors are also impressed by our traditional products. And they always leave with the intention of coming back.
There are options on the Romanian Black Sea coast that can certainly be accessible to any tourist from Romania or from another country. Of course, considering the quality-price ratio, Romania has a very good offer, says Ștefan Necula, director of a tour operator agency.
We believe that in terms of accommodation, and with regard to the hotel infrastructure, things have developed a lot lately. Moreover, if we take into account the increased prices of plane tickets for established destinations, we see that Romania is one of the destinations that can be considered for a budget travel. For a 5-night stay, starting on July 10, accommodation in the Mamaia resort, in a three-star hotel, costs around 400 Euroe. In the south, in a resort such as Eforie Nord, for example, accommodation for the same period would cost around 230 Euro in a three-star hotel and some 670 Euro in a four-star hotel, for a double room, half board.
The Mihail Kogălniceanu Airport in Constanta has announced renovation and expansion works until the end of the year, but without affecting its operations. Also, from the Bucharest airport, one can reach the Black Sea coast in less than three hours on A2, also known as the Sun Motorway. (LS, MI)
