Package holidays for the Romanian seaside have seen an increase ever since the low season, by 50% against last year. The number of Romanian and foreign tourists who visit coastal resorts is increasing, with the majority choosing the resorts of Mamaia and Neptun. "Since May, we have had a 50 % sales increase against last year, and estimate we will see a 20% growth for the overall tourist season at the seaside.
