A Villa on the Adriatic Sea that Respects the International Law of Maritime State Property: the Sea Belongs to Everyone and So Do the 5m of Coast from the Shoreline; Stara Baška, Otok Krk Island, Primorsko-Goranska Županja, Hrvatska
27-December-2024 at early sunset.
It is a building that is well inserted into the environment, in an "oasis" of Stara Baška, sheltered from the Bora/Bura wind and with that little bit of humus that has allowed the rise of a grove of black Pines (Pinus nigra var austriaca).
The owner, who I don't know if he is happy with this publicity, but I photographed the little bay, the house is in the environment, has respected the international law cited in the title and has left free passage on foot along the coast, probably also arranging a path that winds over the rocks near the wall of the garden of the house.
It should be mandatory and certainly not to be noted, but both in Croatia (Rab-Lopar cape...for example), and in Italy (Costiera Triestina...) there are people who do not respect this simple rule, throwing fences or walls into the water and unduly appropriating stretches of coast that should belong to everyone.
These people should be ashamed of their "private property" (to us) intimidating signs and with them the complacent administrators and the controls that are not carried out.
It is a magnificent place and even more so it should be respected, as done by the (very) lucky owner of those square meters in the greenery near a splendid blue sea.
