Mangalia
Mangalia is a permanent spa, located at the same latitude as the Mediterranean resorts of Monaco, San Reno and Nice is the southernmost resort of the Black Sea Coast. Only here in Romania in winter the temperature remains above 0 degrees C. Its name derives from Byzantine Greek (Pangalia or Pancalia- "the most beautiful"-mentioned in the 12th century on a map from Pisa). The city of Mangalia is as old as Constanta, as it was also founded in the 6th century B.C. under the name of Callatis (after the Calles river in Asia Minor). Mangalia is known for the natural cure factors which are the water of the Black Sea that is chlorinated, sulfated, sodic and hypotonic, as well as the sulfurous, bicarbonated, calcic, mesothermal mineral waters of its springs.

Some of the tourist attractions are the Scythian tomb discovered in 1959 where archaeologists unearthed fragments of a papyrus in Greek, the first document of this kind in Romania; the incineration tombs (the necropolis of the Callatis citadel, dating back to the 4th-2nd centuries B.C.); the ruins of the Callatis citadel (6th century B.C.); the Turkish mosque (16th century); the Archaeology Museum which shelters a rich collection of amphorae and sculptures from the Hellenistic period, fragments of stone sarcophagi, etc. You can find here also a horse farm, with Arab pure breeds.

Vama Veche
To the south of Mangalia, in the summer, one can meet a Bohemian community, i.e. Romanian artists, actors, singers, dancers who come for a holiday in a secluded place, the peaceful village of Vama Veche, a traditional destination for those enjoying quiet beaches, sea swimming and nudism.
