The Peenestrom

The 20 km long sea arm of the Baltic Sea connects the Stettiner Haff with the open Baltic Sea and creates an attractive landscape characterized by bays that invites you to a discovery tour.

Several outbumes such as the roller water, Spandowerhagener Wiek and Kumminer Wiek shape the appearance of the special rivers. The electricity from the Peene River, which flows near Anklam, got its name. With increased wind speeds, the Stettiner Haff is pressed from the Baltic Sea from time to time. This means that strong currents can occur at times in the Peenestrom. All water sports enthusiasts should prepare for rough weather.

Many different small yacht ports such as Freest , Kröslin , Peenemünde and Wolgast make the Peenestrom a popular sailing area. By the end of 2009, the Peenestrom was deepened as a sea water road to 7.50 m. This enables ships with severe supply loading. Peenestrom is also home to many species of birds and fish. The great abundance of fish causes the electricity to become a preferred habitat for water birds such as sea eagles, heron and cormorants.
