Ostrožská Nová Ves straddles the Morava River floodplain in the Zlín Region, a flat setting that has shaped its farming villages, waterways and lakes. It belongs to Slovácko, the south-eastern Moravian cultural region associated with folk music, costume and wine traditions. Lakes created by gravel extraction now form a notable part of the local recreation area, while the nearby Baťa Canal follows the Morava corridor. Built in the 1930s for transporting lignite, the canal is today used by pleasure boats. The village is also known for Sirnaté lázně, a spa using sulphurous mineral water.
