It is composed of a single village, Dăeni.
The commune is located in the southwestern corner of the county, on the border with the Brăila and Constanța counties, {{cvt|76|km}} from the county seat, Tulcea. It lies on the right bank of the {{ill|Măcin Branch|ro|Brațul Măcin}} of the Danube.
The Salcia hamlet lies right across the Danube, on the Great Brăila Island. During the 1950s and 1960s, the Romanian Communist regime operated here the Salcia penal colony (part of the Brăila Swamp labor camps).<ref>{{cite news|url=https://www.mediafax.ro/editorialistii/istoria-fara-perdea-marius-oprea-blocul-cadrelor-de-la-salcia-singurul-vestigiu-al-lagarelor-din-romania-restul-au-fost-distruse-de-blocul-cadrelor-inca-vii-din-securitate-21155963|title="Blocul cadrelor" de la Salcia – singurul vestigiu al lagărelor din România.
