Over 71,000 tourists visited the Danube Delta in 2016<\/p>\n

In 2016, the number of officially registered tourists in the Danube Delta decreased by 16.8%, to 71,674, compared to 2015, a year that can be considered a reference point for this decade, with 86,086 tourists, according to data published on the Danube Delta Biosphere Reserve Administration website.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
„Unfortunately, there is no real situation that includes the number of visitors who did not pay the access fees to the Delta. I believe the real number of visitors to the Reserve last year was much higher, nearly 100,000,” stated the Reserve’s governor, Grigore Baboianu.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
At the same time, the number of accommodation places has increased in the last five years, from 3,813 places in 2012 to 6,177 in 2016.<\/div>\n
