Former fishing port in the north-eastern part of the Little Lagoon, located directly on the Polish border.
NV Cruising Guide
Navigation
Due to numerous nets, the approach to Kamminke is only recommended during the day. Immediately behind the extension of the quay you enter the harbour to port. The channel in front of the pier head (at buoy KA4) tends to silting up.
Berths
The harbour offers little space for recreational shipping. There is a mooring for passenger vessels on the north pier. Sport boats are moored at the eastern part of the north pier. There is swell in the harbour when the winds are easterly.
Surroundings
On the pier there is a snack bar, otherwise no shopping facilities. Simple sanitary facilities (no shower) and drinking water are available.
NV Land Guide
The "modern achievements of socialism" only sparsely penetrated to the fishing village nestling picturesquely on a steep slope. So almost everything remained as it was, the partly thatched fishermen's houses, the winding village street paved with cobblestones and the net square at the harbour. Although the well-kept houses received a small extension here and there, there is hardly anything to detract from the original character of the fishing village.
One reason for the village's slumber on the Szczecin Lagoon will probably be its proximity to the Polish border, which runs directly east of the village. Particular economic impulses were therefore not to be expected from Kamminke. A few fishing boats still remain from the former main source of income. Changed also the political circumstances, the change from lease payments to the nobility to the cooperative was made. The only "cultural centres" in the village are the bus stop for the youngsters and the fish trap shed opposite for the older generation.
During the holiday season, more life comes to the village then summer visitors stroll through the few alleys or look around the harbour. If you turn left from there on the village road, you come to the campsite and a number of holiday homes, as well as the cemetery on the hill. The short walk along the steep slope overgrown with pine trees is especially recommended because of the view of the lagoon. You can see as far as Ueckermünde, on the other side of the Szczecin Lagoon.
Further west, a path leads across meadows and fields to the small village of Garz (4 km). The place name once meant "small fortress" in Slavic. However, there is no longer any sign of a fortress or castle. The church is the only historic building and is most notable for the fact that the church bell is mounted directly above the ground on a sturdy wooden structure outside.
There is also the option of taking a bus to Garz and even further to the seaside resorts on the Baltic coast - Ahlbeck, Heringsdorf and Bansin - just under 15 km away. Stagnieß and Kamminke are the ideal locations to make excursions to the well-known seaside resorts.
Golm is the name of the 59-metre-high mountain that can be found 3 km north of the harbour. The name is also of Slavic origin and is said to mean "hill". That this place served as a dwelling place more than a thousand years ago is proven by found stone tools and bronze utensils. Today, the forest around the hilltop is a nature reserve.
The legend says that a long time ago, a prince lived here who had many treasures but was too stingy to marry off his daughter. When he finally died, the already ugly daughter was no longer the youngest and no suitor showed up - until one day a magician came to marry her. But because he was even uglier than she, she turned him down, and the sorcerer was so enraged that he turned her castle into a mountain and condemned her to keep watch over her treasures for eternity. Only a Sunday child who courts her can redeem her on St. John's Day. So far, the princess is said to have emerged from her treasure chambers in vain, waiting for someone to make a good match.
A memorial on Golm commemorates a dark chapter in German history and the deaths of many soldiers. More than 20,000 victims of the fighting around Swinemünde in the last days of World War II are buried in a mass grave near the Burgwall. "That never a mother weeps for her son again," reads the memorial.
North of Golm lies the almost completely silted-up Lake Zernin, now a marshy and boggy area surrounded by hiking trails. The overgrown former Usedom - Swinemünde railway line runs along the country road south of the Zerninsee for a bit.
