Danube Delta
 

So Why is Danube Delta My Favorite Vacation Spot?

I’ve been living my whole life close to the Danube Delta, always at only a short boat ride from the marvelous spectacle the nature offers us in this beautiful land.

Any time I would feel like it, I could simply just take the first ship to Sulina or Sfantu Gheorghe and find myself in the middle of the wilderness.

With that in mind, you would expect for me to become so sick of it and look for something else.

Well, not really...

In fact, up until recently, I never gave it too much importance. I just took it for granted, as something that was just there and never saw the beauty of it.

You know how you never appreciate things that you take for granted. Well, I totally relate to that.

My passion for the Danube Delta was born after I saw a marathon show on TV about a year and a half ago about Sulina, an old city in the delta where I discovered a lot of interesting facts about this land’s history.

After that, I took the first opportunity to visit this place and guess what:

I fell in love with it.

The time I had there was unbelievable.

The beaches, the people, the fishing, boat riding, the traditional dishes and everything else made that particular trip the best trip I ever had.

The Danube Delta has some kind of magic that draws you back to it once you leave. Once I left Sulina, I couldn’t wait for the next trip.

Soon enough, two weeks later I was in Sfantu Gheorghe, a small fishermen village on the Danube’s branch with the same name.

I got there right in middle of the International Anonymous Movie Festival.

Oh, that was beautiful. The cultural diversity I found there was incredible.

We took long night walks on the beach, during which, thanks to the clear sky and lack of any form of human intervention, I think I saw over 30 falling stars.

And there’s nothing more beautiful that being lulled to sleep by the Black Sea’s waves every night.

After those two experiences, I’ve been a frequent visitor.

I built this website because I want to share with the world at least some bits of the beautiful Danube Delta. You will find here:
