Nature

Its nature is one of the Baltic region’s most valuable assets and has cast its spell on people for centuries. Protecting and conserving it is a main priority - so national parks and protected areas shape the natural scenery of the Baltic Sea.

Migrating birds - especially cranes - make an unforgettable, incomparable natural spectacle for several weeks in spring and autumn. Rügen’s chalk cliffs with their gleaming cliff line, the Curonian Spit with its giant shifting dunes or the Wolin National Park, the first coastal nature park in Poland, give a glimpse of the geological development of the Baltic Sea Region.
