2026: "The Danube Delta (Romanian: Delta Dunării, pronounced [ˈdelta ˈdunərij] ⓘ; Ukrainian: Дельта Дунаю, romanized: Del'ta Dunaju, pronounced [delʲˈtɑ dʊnɐˈju]) is the second largest river delta in Europe, after the Volga Delta, and is the best preserved on the continent.[2] Occurring where the Danube River empties into the Black Sea, most of the Danube Delta lies in Romania (Tulcea County), with a small part located in Ukraine (Odesa Oblast).[3][4] Its approximate surface area is 4,152 square kilometres (1,603 square miles), of which 3,446 km2 (1,331 sq mi) is in Romania. With the lagoons of Razim–Sinoe (1,015 km2 or 392 sq mi with 865 km2 or 334 sq mi water surface), located south of the main delta, the total area of the Danube Delta is 5,165 km2 (1,994 sq mi). The Razim–Sinoe lagoon complex is geologically and ecologically related to the delta proper; the combined territory is listed as a World Heritage Site."
"The Danube River flows into the Black Sea through the Danube Delta in Romania, which is the largest and best-preserved delta in Europe. This delta is a UNESCO World Heritage Site and is known for its rich biodiversity, including over 300 species of birds and 45 freshwater fish species.
- The Danube Delta is a vast wetland area formed by the river's deposition of alluvium over centuries.
- The delta is located in the Romanian part of the Dobrogea region, at the mouth of the Danube River.
- Sulina, a town at the mouth of the Danube, serves as the main port and the only urban settlement within the Romanian part of the delta.
- The Sulina channel, the shortest of the Danube's main branches, has been dredged and straightened to allow navigation.
- The Danube Delta is a significant habitat for various bird species, making it a popular destination for ornithologists and nature enthusiasts."
