Crișan - Heart of the Delta
Wetland reserve
What it feels like
Slow water under a flat sky. Reeds bending, herons taking off, the boat engine cutting out into silence.
Crișan, a village on the Sulina branch halfway to the sea, is considered the heart of the Danube Delta. Waterside guesthouses, boat trips into wild channels, fishing for catfish and shad and complete tranquillity make Crișan the most authentic destination in the Delta.
Best time to visit
April through October. May–June for migrating birds.
