Urkevitz is an uninhabited German

West Pomeranian Lagoon Area National Park. It lies in the Baltic Sea between the islands of Rügen and Ummanz
, and is less than 100 metres from the latter. The island is about 1,000 metres long, up to 300 metres wide and up to 5 metres above sea level.

Like its neighbours, Liebes, Mährens and Wührens, it is a bird reserve. A bridge runs from Ummanz to Urkevitz, but the island is out-of-bounds to the public
