By plane, to Mihail Kogalniceanu Airport, at 14 km from Tulcea then by ships.

By car or by train, to Tulcea, then by ships.

By clasical ship or speed boats, from Tulcea to Saint George.

When a friend of mine asked me if I wanted to go to the Prometheus Folk Festival in Sfantu Gheorghe, I was a bit in doubt. Finally, I made up my mind and left from Neptun to Sfantu Gheorghe, with a very small backpack containing a skirt and two gipsy blouses, plus a towel and my bathing suit. I somehow managed to get to Sfantu Gheorghe all by myself (the way I got there in itself was an adventure) and it was in the village where I met my friend, who led me to the tent I was going to crash into. Mind you, I had nothing resembling a sleeping bag or anything, but my gorgeous friend had taken care of it all. So there I was, in the Danube Delta, for the first time in my life. Unfortunately, I only stayed there for about two days or so, but still I managed to see the greatest beach ever, the most beautiful sunsets in my life, I walked barefoot all day long through the village, I listened to some GREAT folk music and basically I filled myself with the outstanding atmosphere there. There must be something in the air – the people really are great, the sea is so friendly and the water is so warm.. I can’t wait for the next summer, I hope I’ll be able to stay there for the whole festival (8 days or so). But this time, I’m going to have my tent with me, and maybe drag along a few friends, because EVERYONE should see Sfantu Gheorghe.
