Tourist Attractions
The Slowinzischer National Park lies on the coast between Rowy and was declared a Biosphere Reserve by UNESCO in 1997. The park is famous for its shifting dunes, which are up to 42 m high and are moved by the wind at a speed of 3-10 m per year. The largest dune is the Lontzkedüne (Polish. Łącka Góra).
Another special feature are the shallow coastal lakes, which were originally bays in the Baltic Sea and were separated from the sea.
