Today is about Black Sea
The Black Sea is bordered by six countries, located on two continents (Europe and Asia). It has about 423,000 square kilometers, that is, it is almost twice as big as Romania (238,000 km).
In our country, the Black Sea is bordered by 245 kilometers of coastline, of which 100 kilometers with sandy beaches. While the delta area is protected, the southern side of the seaside has been transformed into a chain of resorts of 25 localities and 13 major resorts, visited annually by over one million tourists.
