Is Constanta worth visiting solo?

Safety:Safe

Constanta, one of Romania's important cities, generally reports lower rates of crime and is considered quite safe for solo female travelers.

Transport:Easy

Traveling through Constanta as a solo female traveler is fairly simple. The city is well-structured, with most attractions centrally located, making walking a pleasant option. Taxis and public transport are accessible, affordable and generally reliable. However, the language barrier might pose a slight challenge if you don't speak Romanian. Car rental service is available, but be prepared for active driving style typical for Romania.

Things to do:Interesting

Constanta offers a blend of history and modernity that satisfies a range of interests. The ancient city has rich historical sites like the Roman edifices, Constanta Casino, and the Naval Museum for history lovers.

Food:Above average

Solo travel experience

From the train station I walked to the sea. I stopped at Panda and had a placinta cu branza dulce, after which I took a walk on the beach. The weather was in my favor, sunny and not too windy. On the way back I passed through the center and by the casino.
