Sažetak
A critical concern during this post-war development phase is continuing protection of marine biodiversity and preservation of currently high levels of water purity along the Croatian coast. The creation of sustainable Croatian coastal zone would provide an oasis for sea life and retain a resource which is universally attractive to visitors. Existing protection is not adequate: a three year study has targeted six localities and generated many recommendation for improved area management. The proper protocol for systematic protection includes a thorough inventory of species, conditions and environmental pressures, the collection of montoring data to track change and ongoing research into the dynamics of underwater communities. The aim of this management strategy is to exert a positive influence on island development by guiding non-destructive forms of tourism, creating jobs in research and monitoring, protection the revenues derived from fishing and tourism and spreading knowledge about the environment its value and its fragility.
