Regions
Danube Delta
Europe’s largest wetland — pelicans, fishing villages, and 4,000 km² of channels you can only see by boat.
About the region
The Danube empties into the Black Sea through a delta the size of a small country — protected as a UNESCO biosphere reserve. Three hundred bird species (including the great white pelican), an active fishing culture in villages reachable only by boat, and channels of still water where mornings smell of reeds and diesel. Best between May and September. We pair the delta with two or three nights in a Lipovan fishing-village pension, plus a guided boat day from Tulcea.
