Nowe Warpno is a small lagoon town on the Polish-German border, suited to groups in large homes with gardens. The Szczecin Lagoon is separated from the Baltic by the islands of Usedom and Wolin, so expect sheltered water and marinas rather than surf.
Nowe Warpno sits on Nowe Warpno Bay, on the southern side of the Szczecin Lagoon, with Germany across the water: the village of Altwarp lies over an 800 metre strait, linked by a ferry. About 1,100 people live in the town, first mentioned in 1184. It has an old town with historic townhouses, a timber-framed town hall from the 17th century, an old town church and a lagoon marina. Podgrodzie, on a headland close by, has holiday centres and its own marina. Visitors come mainly from Germany. The homes are mostly big, many sleeping eight or more and a few far larger parties, nearly all with a garden. Out of season it is a very small, quiet town.

Yes. Altwarp in Germany lies across an 800 metre strait, and a ferry links the two. Ueckermünde, on the German side of the border, is one of Nowe Warpno's twin towns.
Yes, more than most places. Many homes sleep eight or more, a few take far larger parties, and nearly all have a garden. Pools are not offered, so the garden and the marina are the main attractions.
Small. About 1,100 people live in the town, and the wider municipality has one of the lowest population densities in Poland. Visitors come mainly from Germany, so the town keeps a cross-border character.
