Danube Delta - Our natural treasure

Danube Delta - Our natural treasure


We often hear that we have a beautiful country, but do we really realize the importance of Romania at the European level and beyond? Do we really realize how important and unique nature is to us? Romania is one of the countries with the greatest biodiversity in Europe. This must be emphasized and capitalized on!

The standard of this natural wealth is without gift and perhaps the Danube Delta. It is our natural treasure. It is a unique place in the whole world. It is the diamond of Romanian tourism. And Tulcea has the privilege of being the place from which the entire delta opens wide, the one without equal and without comparison.

This empire of waters, as we like to call the Danube Delta, introduces us to its specific fauna and flora. For example, did you know that the delta is the largest wetland in Europe and has the largest compact reed area in the world? More than 300 species of birds live in the delta alone, more than half of the species present on the entire continent. For this reason, the Danube Delta is the only Biosphere reserve in Romania that only has this protection status and is not a national or natural park. The inestimable value of this area included the delta in the UNESCO World Heritage List, along with the virgin forests of our country.

So, let yourself be carried away to unseen lands, of immeasurable value, which you will definitely have to cross if you arrive in Tulcea. Delta is the place where multiculturalism, local traditions and customs, seasonal events, culinary experiences, but above all all the wildness and beauty of the space manage to delight you every time.

In conclusion, from Tulcea you can explore this natural paradise on day trips, from morning to evening. You need to allocate time, be patient and practice tourism as slowly as possible. First of all to protect nature, to enjoy the landscapes and to admire all the birds in peace. But also to really synchronize with the rhythm of the delta, with the way it is lived and breathed here.

Use all the information in the app, document your favorite routes and don't forget to contact the tour operators we recommend here. They are serious and professional people who love the delta and have been practicing quality tourism for many years.
