DnevnikIndependent🔒Progressive7 hr. ago Croatian woman angry at Slovenes: They are not on the beach, but they occupy the best seats with chairsAn article reports on complaints from Croatian citizens regarding the occupation of public beach areas by Slovenians who leave sunbeds and tables, allegedly reserving space. The incident occurred at Varoš beach in Pašman, where a Croatian woman, who is an oncology patient with a young child, moved a rented sunbed to provide shade. She was confronted and verbally assaulted by a Slovenian woman. The incident was reported to local authorities but received no response.

Croatian woman: The Slovenians are taking over the beach, and when I moved their chairs, the Slovenian woman attacked me.A Croatian woman reported an incident at Varoš Beach on Pašman Island where a Slovenian tourist allegedly attacked her after she moved their sunbeds and towel to claim space under the shade. The woman, who is an oncologist, said she had to move the items because there was no shade available, but a Slovenian woman then confronted and pushed her away. She filed a complaint with the local police but claims they did not respond. Similar incidents reportedly occur along the Croatian coast, with locals expressing frustration over foreign visitors reserving spots by leaving towels and sunbeds.
