Mila 23 is the most sought-after village in the Danube Delta — a place where time flows differently, the colourful houses of the Lipovan community are reflected in the water, and boats are the only means of transport. We depart from Tulcea on Canal 36 and cross lakes filled with pelicans, white and yellow water lilies, cormorants and egrets before reaching the heart of the village. At Mila 23 you can explore the village on foot, try a traditional fish meal at a local household or simply enjoy the quiet of a car-free settlement. It is the starting point for most longer routes — to Letea, Sulina, Caraorman or Chilia — and the perfect destination for a first encounter with the Danube Delta.

To ensure that your trip is not only pleasant but also sustainable, please observe the following rules and common sense tips:
- Respect wildlife - The Danube Delta is a fragile ecosystem, so please admire the flora and fauna from a safe distance. Do not disturb birds and animals, and avoid collecting plants.
- Only dispose of rubbish in designated areas - Keep the Delta clean! Keep your rubbish with you and only dispose of it in the designated areas. In this way we protect the natural habitat and contribute to maintaining the healthy ecology of the Danube Delta.
- Keep quiet - The Danube Delta is a peaceful sanctuary for many bird species. Please keep the noise level low so as not to disturb these creatures and to enjoy the sounds of nature in silence.
- Don't feed wild animals - Even if the intention is good, feeding wild animals can disrupt their natural diet and create harmful addictions. Let nature take its course and regulate itself.
- Use biodegradable products - If you need to use personal use products during your trip, opt for biodegradable products. This protects water quality and the habitat.
- Learn about local species - The more you know about the fauna and flora of the Danube Delta, the more you will appreciate this experience. Our guides are here to share fascinating information about each species you encounter.
- Follow the guides' instructions - Our guides are well trained and know every corner of the Delta. Listen carefully to their directions and follow any local rules to ensure a safe and discovery-filled experience.
- Take photos, but in moderation - Photos are great, but avoid using blitz, especially near birds. Bright light can disturb and stress animals. Capture memories, but with respect for your surroundings.
That being said, we are convinced that every boat trip through the Danube Delta will not only be a memorable adventure, but also a commitment to protecting this unique corner of nature. Join Deeper Blue to discover the beauty of the Danube Delta!
