General presentation
Delta du Danube
Large landscape of canals, reeds, lagoons, birds and villages accessible mainly by boat.
The Danube Delta discovery revolves around Tulcea, Sulina and Delta Channels. The stay thus alternates between wetlands, river landscapes, natural areas and the coastline, giving a concrete picture of the destination beyond its only best known site.
See all
For a stay of 3 to 6 days, a quiet rhythm works well. Also to be expected: boat excursions to organize and mosquitoes in season. A car is usually the easiest way to connect the different sectors. Accessibility varies from site to site and deserves to be verified step by step.

Places worth visiting
A selection to start dreaming and organizing the stay — not an exhaustive list of everything there is to see.
Town or village
Tulcea
Tulcea serves as a threshold for the Danube Delta, with its docks, boats and canal-oriented agencies. The city does not have the silence of the reeds, but it allows to prepare the entrance into this world of water, birds and villages accessible by boat.
Town or village
Sulina
Sulina joins the river and looks at both the Danube, the Black Sea and the long sandy beaches. Former cosmopolitan port, the small town keeps lighthouses, a marine cemetery and a more marked impression of the end of the world than in continental bases.
Nature
Canaux du delta
The canals of the Danube delta draw a maze of reeds, willows, lagoons and isolated villages. The discovery is made mainly from a boat or small boat, at the rhythm of pelicans, herons, martins-fishers and changing reflections on the water.
