 The Evolution of Seaside Tourism in the First Tourist Season of the COVID-19 Pandemic: The Situation of the Romanian Black Sea ResortsIon Danut Juganaru ()
Ovidius University Annals, Economic Sciences Series, 2020, vol. XX, issue 2, 690-699 Abstract: Tourism and travel were among the most affected sectors of the economy in 2020, due to the measures taken to prevent the spread of COVID-19, including the restriction of movement of people. Tourism in Romania was also severely affected by this crisis, especially the inbound tourism, but the tourism in the coastal area had, in the first 9 months of 2020, a better evolution than in other tourist areas of the country and compared to other EU countries, based on domestic tourism, since inbound tourism collapsed. The main objectives and goals of the research are the analysis of the evolution of the tourist season in the seaside resorts, in 2020, and to highlight some mistakes that, if avoided in the future, there is a great chance for much better results in the summer tourist season of 2021. The mistakes were made by the state authorities rather than the tour operators.
