Several ships were trapped in a storm in the Adriatic. The Austrians rescued them at Kamnyak.

A maritime rescue operation was coordinated by the Slovenian National Center for Coordination of Search and Rescue at sea, working with the Pula port authority, after several vessels ran aground in the northern Adriatic near Cape Kamenjak. Three Austrian citizens were rescued after their sailboat began sinking. They were found approximately 12 nautical miles south of Kamenjak by representatives of the Luka Pula captaincy and safely transferred to a rescue vessel and brought to Pula. The incident occurred due to a sudden change in a frontal weather system accompanied by strong wind gusts and rough seas. Additional boats ran aground in the areas around the islands of Unija, Susak, and Lošinj. Officials from the Luka Mali Lošinj captaincy inspected the affected area and confirmed there were no casualties, injured individuals, or environmental damage.

(PHOTO) Rescuing three shipwrecked at Kamnyak, found on a life raft

On July 19, 2026, three Austrian sailors were rescued off the coast of Kamenjak after their sailboat encountered difficulties due to harsh weather conditions. The Maritime Rescue Coordination Center received an emergency call at 4:44 AM and initiated a rescue operation in collaboration with the local coast guard in Pula. After approximately two hours, rescuers located the survivors around 12 nautical miles (about 22 kilometers) from the cape, where they were found on a life raft near the damaged sailboat. They were unharmed and transferred to the rescue vessel operated by the coast guard. Authorities will investigate the circumstances of the maritime accident. Meanwhile, rough seas in the Northern Adriatic caused similar issues elsewhere, including seven vessels being washed ashore near the island of Unije, though no injuries were reported.
