The Western Pomerania Lagoon Area National Park (Nationalpark Vorpommersche Boddenlandschaft) is a large nature reserve at the coast of Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania. It consists of several peninsulas and islands in the Baltic Sea, belonging to the districts of Rügen and Nordvorpommern.
The national park includes:
- the Darß peninsula
- the western coast of the island of Rügen
- the island of Hiddensee[?]
- the island of Ummanz[?]
- several tiny islets between the above places
The national park is characterised by very shallow water housing a unique coastal fauna. All portions of the national park are famous for being a resting place for tens of thousands of cranes and geese.
