The Liebesschlucht (love gorge), marked by a large boulder in the water, is a particularly scenic spot. Rerik itself is a charming seaside resort with a rich history. Originally a Slavic settlement called Alt Gaarz, it was renamed Rerik in 1938. Today, it offers a blend of historical landmarks, including the St. Johannes Church and the Heimatmuseum, and modern amenities.
