Danube Delta
Biosphere‘s Reservation
Few people know that Romania’s Danube Delta is Europe’s youngest dry land, growing 40 km each year. Located on the 45th parallel, itmakes for a perfect stopping-off point between the Equator and the North Pole for millions of migratory birds Travelers can spend three or more days exploring its passages, teaming with the highestconcentration of bird colonies in all of Europe Altogether, 3,450 animal species can be seen here, as well as 1,700 plant species
The Delta is formed around the three main channels of theDanube, named after their respective ports: Chilia (in the north), Sulina (in the middle), and Sfantu Gheorghe (in the south). The Delta Biosphere Reserve has placed strict limits on future exploitationof the region. Scientists have divided the delta into three types of areas: those in which controlled fishing and hunting are permitted; those in which tourism may be carefully developed; and thosethat are completely off-limits to all but the scientists studying them.
The Delta can be explored as part of a Danube River Cruise, or on day trips and boat excursions from Tulcea whichhas good hotels, restaurants specializing in fish dishes and the Museum of the Danube Delta. To experience the best of the Delta’s flora and fauna, consider a multi-day trip with overnight stays insome of the local villages. Hiring a local fishing boat for a private tour, or taking out a kayak or rowboat will enable you to explore more remote areas. We recommend that independent exploring beundertaken with a guide and not alone. Be sure to pack a strong mosquito repellent when exploring the Danube Delta.
