The fishing village of
Vitt lies on the German
Baltic Sea island of
Rügen, more precisely on the
Wittow peninsula near
Cape Arkona. The village is part of the municipality of
Putgarten. Because of its location in a coastal gully on the
cliffed coast, called Liete, Vitt is not visible from afar. However, from the edge of the gully there is a view over the thatched roofs of the village. It is a popular tourist destination; often described as "the most romantic place on Rügen". The
Marco Polo guide rates it as one of the top 15 highlights on the island of Rügen.
