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.
