The Danube Delta in winter is an exciting adventure and it did not dissapoint us in 2025 with many great photo opportunities! The breeding plumaged Dalmatian Pelicans in the snow, magical Eurasian Otters on ice, Golden Jackals fighting in their magnificent winter coat, full breeding plumaged Pallas’s Gulls, Wildcats at night, fishing White-tailed Eagles and even a few sightings of the critically endangered European Mink were certainly the highlights of the 2025 season! Please take a look at the tour description and you will see theat the Danube Delta has so much more to offer compared to a visit to Lake Kerkini. And there are even more opportunities to those aformentioned highlights such as Long-eared and Tawny Owls at night, breeding plumaged Great Cormorants, fantastic drone photography and winter-mode delta fishermens. It is a superb tour indeed if the weather is in our favour and most of February was excellent in 2025. The window for this tour is very limited hence this is a rather exclusive tour and definitely a great experience for those who up for the winter challenges! If you are interested in such an adventure you can find the 2026 tour dates online now!
