History of Costinesti

The resort also has a small inland lake, around which several lodges are located.

Opposite to one of the northern beaches, the shipwreck of Evangelia, a Greek ship (originally Empire Strength) beached there in the late 1960s, has proven quite popular with the tourists.

Nightlife is centered mainly around the two discos (Ring and Tineretului), in which, during the summer months, concerts are held nightly by the most popular bands from across Romania. Because Costineşti is mostly frequented by youngsters, the atmosphere tends to be livelier than in the other Black Sea resorts.

Costineşti is easily accessible, either by train or car. There are two railway stops within the resort (South Costineşti — Tabără, North Costineşti), and the town is connected to the main E87 road which runs north to Constanţa and south to the Bulgarian border
