Naval police rescued two Hungarians in the area of Kamenjak

The Croatian police, specifically the Istria Police Unit, rescued two Hungarian tourists near Kamenjak who were unable to return to land due to strong sea currents. The incident occurred after the tourists, a 44-year-old man and a 38-year-old woman, attempted to swim to the island of Fenoliga but were carried out to sea by powerful currents. They managed to swim approximately 50 meters before becoming exhausted and returning to the island. Police officers aboard a patrol boat, including officer Matteo Buždon, assisted them back to shore where their belongings were located. Neither tourist sustained injuries, and medical assistance was not required. The police emphasized the importance of avoiding swimming beyond 100 meters from the shore and warned against using aids like inflatables or SUPs in areas prone to strong currents.
