I never looked at things through the money. Croats are not greedy people and our country is one of the cheapest for tourists in Europe. Fine and reasonable prices of accommodation, really acceptable prices in restaurants, free parking places on beaches and generous people will do all to make their guests feel comfortable.
But many of those tourists are trying to cheat us and steal from us this specific way that I have to speak about.
I wrote before about renewed beach in front of my house and everything is perfect. This is a city beach and the most of people here are from here because tourists prefer to jump from place to place.
What I really can't stand are illegal campers.
Especially because they come from far richer countries than Croatia. There are places here which are predicted for campers and you have to pay minimal prices for those places, but these guys from Netherlands with a very expensive monster camper decided to do it illegally. So they usurped a peace of the coast next to our beach to themselves.
This vehicle is about 5 - 6 times more expensive than a car that I plan to buy!
You should spend a fortune to purchase one of these. But why you act stupid and don't want to pay for a camper place, you chose to stay here where other people come to bath every day and their boats are tied here?
This obviously rich family can afford to have a legal accommodation for very cheap, but they would rather to humiliate our offer and risk to have troubles with police and natives. And they brought a dog! I don't have nothing against dogs, I am a dog person, but there is a clear sign "NO DOGS IN SEA" because many people are swimming around, but their dog acts like this is all his own territory!
People here are too proud to inform police about this so some tried to talk to those campers but their completely ignored. I don't know will someone call the police during the day, so I decided to talk to them myself, before I call the cops.
I wonder what would happen if I went to Netherlands the same way like these guys came here, as illegal camper!
I heard that those penalties are tremendous there! And plus, Netherlands are much much richer country than Croatia , they take good care about their country and it would be really hard to find where to place a camper for free! Imagine that I place a camper just next to the sea there. I think that they would call me a criminal!
