Sažetak
Croatia is a typical Mediterranean country with very long coastal area and more than thousand islands on the eastern part of Adriatic sea from Istria peninsula on the north and Dubrovnik area on south. This is the part of Dinarc karst region mainly built from karstified carbonate rocks. Due to the sea level changes in Quarternary it is characterisied by deep karstification what enable on many places very distant sea water intrusion forming labile balance of fresh and salt water in karst underground. In this paper will be present the general situation along the coast and islands, research methodologies used, and management which is more and more acceptable solution for fresh water exploitation in this region.
