Szczecin Lagoon Szczecin Lagoon Szczecin Lagoon, Stettin Lagoon, Bay of Szczecin, or Stettin Bay (, ), also Oder lagoon (), is a lagoon in the Oder estuary, shared by Germany and Poland. It is separated from the Pomeranian Bay of the Baltic Sea by the islands of Usedom and Wolin. The lagoon is subdivided into the "Kleines Haff" (, "small lagoon") in the West and the "Wielki Zalew" (, "great lagoon") in the East. An ambiguous historical German name was "Frisches Haff", which later exclusively referred to the Vistula Lagoon. From the South, the lagoon is fed by several arms of the
Kokkilai Lagoon shifting cultivation. The lagoon has extensive sea grass beds and small areas of mangrove swamp and mudflats. The shallow waters of the lagoon attracts a wide variety of water birds including pelican, cormorant, herons, egrets, wild duck, stork, waders and pink flamingoes. The lagoon was designated a wildlife sanctuary in 1951. Kokkilai Lagoon Kokkilai lagoon (; ) is an estuarine lagoon in Mullaitivu District and Trincomalee District, north-east Sri Lanka. The town of Kokkilai is located on a sand bar between the lagoon and the Indian Ocean. The lagoon is fed by a number of small rivers, including Churiyan Aru.
