LO:Graal-Mueritz is certainly the most beautiful seaside resorts of Mecklenburg / Western Pomerania and has about 5 kilometres (3.1 miles) of fine beach. The Baltic Sea, being near the old hanseatic city of Rostock and the peninsula "Fischland-DarЯ-Zingst" and being surrounded by a large forest called "Rostocker Heide" - this is what makes Graal-Mueritz so special to its almost 4,000 residents. Graal-Mueritz is well-known for its special climate. The mix of fresh air from the sea and from the forest enables the city to offer rehabilitation, recreation, and prophylaxis of respiratory, circulatory, and skin-realated disturbances.
