Kleine Werder is the name for an island or a group of uninhabited and not permanently geographically separable islands in the Baltic Sea . They belong to the community of Groß Mohrdorf in Mecklenburg-Western Pomerania .

The individual parts of the island are separated from each other by shallow, partly dry water arms. The highest points are a maximum of one meter above sea level. The Kleine Werder are located east of the Großer Werder peninsula and west of the also uninhabited island of Bock . They are also separated from this by narrow, shallow watercourses. They have all been created since the 19th century by sediment alluvial, which was previously removed, especially at Darßer Ort, and shifted to the east by the western current. Numerous birds breed and rest on the islands, which is why they have been declared protection zone I of the Western Pomerania Lagoon Area National Park and may only be entered with special permission.
