The ferry service between Split and Supetar on the island of Brač experienced significant disruptions, according to reports. Passengers reported extensive delays, with one individual noting that they had been waiting since 2:00 PM, and the situation remained unresolved by 7:45 PM. The cause of the breakdown was speculated to be a mechanical failure of one of the ferries.
The prolonged wait, combined with high temperatures, created difficult conditions for passengers, who included families with children, the elderly, and pets. Reports indicated that the congestion and jostling among drivers exacerbated the frustration among those waiting. Furthermore, some drivers engaged in unsportsmanlike behavior by attempting to bypass the established queue, leading to increased dissatisfaction among remaining passengers, as reported by Slobodna Dalmacija.
One passenger recounted arriving at the Split port at 10:00 AM for the ferry to Supetar but not boarding until 2:07 PM, citing an instance where another vehicle passed and occupied the seat directly ahead of them. The overall situation highlighted considerable issues with the reliability of the ferry service. The accumulation of delays and the stressful nature of the waiting period presented challenges for travelers utilizing the connection between the two locations.
