Start near the Constanta Casino and walk along the seafront. This is the most iconic part of the city and the easiest way to get a first impression without needing a car.
Midday: Old Town and Ovidiu Square
Continue toward the historic centre. The small streets, cafes, museum area and Carol I Mosque are close enough to combine on foot.
Afternoon: Port Tomis or Mamaia
Choose Port Tomis if you want restaurants, marina views and a relaxed sunset. Choose Mamaia if your priority is beach time or a resort atmosphere.
