“Daddy, what’s swimming there?” a little German boy asks his father at the end of the jetty. “I don’t know, just jump over it…” Such conversations are not uncommon in the holiday regions of the Adriatic Sea these days. The infamous algae slime, also known as ‘sea snot’, still covers large parts of the Mediterranean Sea.
The “Krone” could now see the situation with its own eyes, in Rovinj on the west coast of Croatia – where it all really began. In early June, the worrying extent of the ‘algal bloom’ in bathing areas was reported for the first time this year.
What does it look like now, more than a month later? Should you go on holiday to Croatia now? Can you still swim there? Or is everything – as recently happened en masse in Italy – covered in the terrible algae slime? The “Krone” has a crystal clear answer to this.
