Windsurfing in Romania 2024-2025
Romania'a Black Sea coast boasts reliable winter winds, great for windsurfing
Best time: October–April
The Black Sea coast of Romania is usually overlooked when it comes to windsurfing. Yet, in the period between October and April, lots of spots along the shoreline receive strong winds, making the conditions highly favorable to enjoy this sport. Summer also grants favorable weather sometimes, but winter winds are particularly better.
If you want to capture the best windsurfing scene, head out to Năvodari, Constanta, or Mamaia, which also ranks among the busiest resorts during the beach season. These locations offer shallow waters and some small waves, suitable for beginners and intermediate riders. Also, in Mamaia, you can find Windsurfing Academy Piccadilly Mamaia and take a class to master the sports. Another spot visited by windsurfers is Vama Veche, but despite its decent winds, the place's main highlight must be the vibrant nightlife rather than water sports. Alternatively, you can opt for windsurfing off the beach, at Lake Ghioroc, for instance, in west of Romania.
