The Rewal Commune is situated in the northern part of the West Pomeranian Province at the Baltic coast in the Gryfice District. It covers 41 km2 and counts about 3,5 thousand inhabitants. Rewal, as a seaside big village, is one of the most attractive places at the Polish Baltic coast the most willingly visited by tourists.

Lack of industry in the area, a healthy maritime microclimate, 18 kilometers long of clean sandy beaches, and many tourist attractions such as the ruins of the fourteenth century church at Trzęsacz, a vintage narrow-gauge railway and the lighthouse at Niechorze are the objects that thanks to our intensive promotion have become known in Poland.
