North Rügen Bodden
The North Rügen Bodden ( or ''Rügenschen Innenboddenkette'') are a string of West Pomeranian lagoons, known as ''bodden'', on the Baltic Sea coast of northeastern Germany. They are almost entirely surrounded by the island of Rügen and its peninsulas. For example, in the north they are bounded by the Bug, the peninsulas of Wittow and Jasmund and the spit of Schaabe. To the south is the Muttland, the main body of Rügen Island. Amongst the highest points in the surrounding ridges of terminal moraine are the Rugard (118 m above NN) near Bergen, the Tempelberg (50 m) near Bobbin, the Hoch Hilgor (43 m) near Neuenkirchen, the Banzelvitz Hills (45 m) near Rappin and the Mühlenberg (25 m) between Buschvitz and Stedar. To the west the chain of ''bodden'' has a narrow link to the Baltic in the Vitter Bodden. Through this narrow strait their waters mix with the salty seawater, so that the waters to the east are always brackish. The string of ''bodden'' is heavily divided. The shore ...

Rassower Strom
The Rassower Strom is a waterway that lies at the tip of the tongue of land between the lagoons of the Wieker Bodden and Breetzer Bodden and is part of the North Rügen Bodden Chain. On its southern shore is the ferry boat landing stage between the villages of ''Vaschvitz'' and ''Fischersiedlung'' in the municipality of Trent. It separates the heartland of the island of Rügen, the Muttland, from the peninsula of Wittow in the north. At its narrowest point it is wide. The Wittow Ferry crosses the Strom. It is a ferry service for foot passengers and vehicles (up to a permitted total weight of 30 t each). In severe winters, when the water surface of the ''bodden'' freezes over, the Rassower Strom remains largely ice-free as a result of the current to and from the Großer Jasmunder Bodden and provides a refuge for large numbers of water fowl The Anatidae are the biological family of water birds that includes ducks, geese, and swans. The family has a cosmopolitan distribu ...
