Readers: Slovenians with chairs reserve the best place on the beach

A reader of Index.hr reports that Slovenian citizens regularly reserve spots on the beach in Varoš, Pašman, by leaving chairs and sunbeds. She claims this practice occurs daily and that local authorities have failed to respond despite her complaint. The woman describes being confronted by a woman from Slovenia who was staying in an apartment above the beach, leading to a confrontation. She reported the incident to the municipal police but received no response. The article highlights a broader issue where the use of towels and sunbeds to claim space on beaches has caused frustration among locals, noting that while laws exist to ensure equal access to coastal areas, they do not explicitly prohibit using items to reserve space. It explains that local municipalities, not national law, determine how such situations should be handled.
