About Rerik

Rerik is a small Baltic Sea resort on the Mecklenburg coast, located between the open Baltic Sea and the calm Salzhaff. The unique location makes the place a paradise for kitesurfers and sailors, while the wide sandy beach attracts bathers. Behind Rerik lies the mysterious Wustrow Peninsula — a closed former military facility with a lost-place atmosphere, offering fascinating views from the observation point.
