A dramatic rescue unfolded yesterday afternoon off the coast of Primošten when a German citizen was swept out to sea by large waves and poor weather conditions. The emergency call came in around 15:50 local time, reporting that a person in the sea was unable to return to their kayak due to the strong waves and bad weather.

The Coast Guard of Šibenik immediately dispatched an official vessel to the location. Around 17:20, police officers spotted a capsized kayak without a person. At approximately 17:30, they found a visibly exhausted male about 2000 meters from the shore and safely lifted him onto the police vessel.
