In the West-Rügen Office , based in the municipality of Samtens , eleven municipalities are united to deal with their administrative business. It is named after the location on the island of Rügen in the Vorpommern-Rügen district in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania (Germany).

On January 1, 2005, the West-Rügen Office was re-established from the former offices of Gingst and South-West Rügen and the formerly free municipality of Insel Hiddensee .

Starting from the center of Rügen, the official area comprises several peninsulas that extend to the west, north-west and north. These foothills are separated only by narrow straits from the Bug and Wittow peninsulas and from the ferry island ( Hiddensee sub- island ). The office also includes the islands of Hiddensee, Ummanz and the smaller islands of Heuwiese , Liebitz , Öhe and the ferry island. The official area is predominantly agricultural, but tourism is playing an increasingly important role - it is the main source of income on Hiddensee. In the south, the West-Rügen Office has a share in Strelasund , opposite the city of Stralsund , with which Rügen is connected by the Rügen dam . Large parts of the official area are part of the Vorpommersche Boddenlandschaft National Park .

In the south the federal highway 96 and the railway line Stralsund - Sassnitz cross the administrative area.
