The Danube Delta – Wild and Serene

The Danube Delta – Europe’s Wild Paradise

Welcome to the Danube Delta, one of the most biodiverse and untouched natural regions in Europe. A UNESCO World Heritage Site, the Delta is where the Danube River meets the Black Sea, forming a vast labyrinth of channels, lakes, reed islands, and remote fishing villages.

Wild Nature & Unique Landscapes
The Delta is a paradise for birdwatchers and nature lovers. Over 300 bird species—including pelicans, herons, egrets, and cormorants—find shelter here. The ever-changing scenery offers peaceful boat rides through lily-covered canals, wild beaches, oak forests, and water meadows teeming with life.

Life in the Villages
Traditional Lipovan villages like Mila 23, Sfantu Gheorghe, and Letea offer a glimpse into a slower, simpler way of life. Wooden houses painted in blue and white, fish-based cuisine, and warm local hospitality invite visitors to relax and connect with nature and community.
