What this zone is

Overview

How spearfishing is treated at Uvala Morinje i Jadrtovac (posebno stanište).

Morinje Bay — an enclosed lagoon-like bay by the village of Jadrtovac south of Šibenik, bounded by the bridge at the bay entrance. Designated a 'posebno stanište' (special fish habitat) under Article 14 of Pravilnik NN 125/2020: only hand lines, set longlines, fish pots and gigs are allowed — the speargun is not a permitted gear, so spearfishing is banned; the restriction applies to sport and recreational fishing (Art. 14(6)).
