Lakes are prolonged and narrow, formed through the blocking of the little deltaic gulfs by sandy barriers in ascending evolution.
When deltaic barriers reach the stage of descending evolution, lakes are open, first by wickets which gradually become larger. This is how Zatonul Mare and Zatonul Mic, in the south of the delta, were formed. Lagoons are wide aquatoriums formed through the blocking of the Dobrudja gulfs by series of sandy barriers.
Razelm is the biggest lagoon, Sinoe (115 km2), Golovita (85km2) and Zmeica (60 km2) come after. Lagoons are supplied with waters coming from the Sfantu Georghe branch through the Dunovat and Dranov canals.
