Wieker Bodden
The Wieker Bodden is a lagoon or bodden, that is largely surrounded by the German Baltic Sea island of Rügen. It is part of the North Rügen Bodden Chain.Location
The Wieker Bodden lies between the peninsula of Bug to the west and the main section of the peninsula of Wittow in the north and east.
In the south the bodden is bounded by the Rassower Strom, which forms a link from the Vitter Bodden in the west to the Großer Jasmunder Bodden in the east.The bodden gets its name from the village of Wiek on its perimeter. Apart from Wiek the larger village of Dranske also lies on the Wieker Bodden.In Wiek the construction of a loading bridge was started before the First World War for the shipping from Kreide. The bridge is still there today, albeit in a state of decay.Surfing
In the northern part of the bodden it is very shallow and thus very popular with windsurfers and kitesurfers.
