The Black Sea Coast – Experiences and activities

About the area

What The Black Sea Coast has to offer

Romania's Black Sea coast is a varied destination that goes well beyond the classic beach holiday. Depending on the resort, visitors will find water sports, boat trips, sailing, kayaking, stand-up paddleboarding, snorkelling, fishing and other activities on the water. Constanța and its old town add a cultural and culinary dimension, while the southern coast offers beaches, quieter spots and access to the Dobrogean landscape. The marinas and tourist harbours make sailing yachts and other craft available too.
