We spent the day with the maritime police, punishments in the Adriatic inevitable, "I did well and passed"...

As summer begins in Croatia, maritime traffic increases both on land and at sea, prompting the need for strict adherence to maritime rules to prevent potential tragedies. The Split-Dalmatia Maritime Police has recorded 63 violations in the past week alone, primarily due to improper anchoring. During a patrol, a skipper was stopped for lacking insurance documentation and fined symbolically. Another incident involved a sailboat improperly anchored too close to the shore, resulting in a fine of 405 euros. The police noted that local skippers are more aware of safety regulations compared to foreign visitors who often stay for shorter periods. This increased enforcement aims to mitigate risks associated with rising summer traffic and non-compliance with maritime laws.
