Sulina is a town and free port in Romania, at the mouth of the Sulina branch of the Danube. It is the easternmost point of Romania.

Its name is probably derived from Slavic word for "salt", sol with suffix -ina.

Once a prosperous port and important shipyard, from 1856 to 1939 the seat of the Danube Commission, Sulina has become a disadvantaged location, with an estimated 40% rate of unemployment in 2004, approximately seven times higher than the Romanian average.
