2 Mai
A fishing village turned bohemian refuge — calm and a pace from another world.
2 Mai is the fishing village turned bohemian refuge of the coast — the quiet alternative to its neighbour Vama Veche, just a few kilometres from the Bulgarian border. Here you will find no big hotels or loud clubs, but guesthouses, camping, vine-shaded yards and a pace from another world.
The village has a story of its own: Greek and Macedonian fishermen once settled here, and later it became the favourite haunt of artists and intellectuals seeking freedom and quiet far from the official resorts. The beach is natural and wilder, and fresh fish cooked in the locals' yards is an institution.
2 Mai is the choice for those after the authentic, the simple and the peaceful — a fuss-free holiday, in a tent or a guesthouse, with sunrises on the beach and long evenings over a glass of wine. It is the quietest corner of the coast, for free spirits who prefer nature to concrete.
