Beach costs vary significantly depending on the location. In Romania, daily beach costs range from about 18 euros in Mamaia to over 28 euros in Mamaia Nord, with nearby cafes charging 4 to 6 euros for low-cost items. Dining prices in Romanian seaside restaurants are around 6-9 euros for pizza and 10 euros for a schnitzel. In more upscale resorts like Vama Veche or Kostinești, daily costs can reach 22 to 38 euros. In Bulgaria, average daily tourist expenses rarely exceed 30 euros, with sunbed rentals varying from 7 to 15 euros depending on the location. In Greece, tourists often do not pay for sunbeds but must spend a minimum amount on food or drinks; however, costs in areas like Attica can be very high. Ibiza offers relatively lower prices for sunbed rentals, ranging from 10 to 30 euros, and Spain has areas with even lower prices. In terms of drinks, beer in Romania can cost 7 to 9.5 euros, while cocktails average around 13 euros in Palanga.

PULSE is an initiative for cross-border collaborative journalism in Europe co-funded by the European Commission under Grant Agreement n. PO 4500158093.

PULSE is an initiative coordinated by OBCT that has been promoting intensive journalistic cross-border collaborations in Europe since 2024. Its main aim is to help strengthen the European public sphere by reporting on and telling stories from new and diverse perspectives.

At the heart of PULSE are 10 leading national news outlets (Delfi – Lithuania, Deník Referendum – Czechia, Der Standard – Austria, EfSyn – Greece, El Confidencial – Spain, Gazeta Wyborcza – Poland, HotNews – Romania, HVG – Hungary, Il Sole 24 Ore – Italy, Mediapool – Bulgaria) and three transnational organisations, including OBCT , n-ost and Voxeurop .

Additional outlets and journalists are involved as associate partners, including EUobserver , Føljeton (Denmark), H-Alter (Croatia), Levila (Estonia), Rubryka (Ukraine), and The Journal Investigates (Ireland).

PULSE is driven by a sort of virtual transnational newsroom made up of journalists from all the publications involved. It collaboratively produces new journalistic content on European issues on a daily basis, coming in many different languages. The editorial output amounts to over a thousand publications per year, mostly in article form.

PULSE also runs 4 thematic networks open to any European journalist interested in crucial issues such as EU enlargement, relations between the EU and other global powers, the EU’s green transition, or media and the information society. These networks function as online communities and periodically publish calls for pitches.
