Montenegro’s Most Dangerous Coastline Finally Gets a Rescue Scooter!
Did you know that one of the most dangerous spots on Montenegro’s coast – the Big Beach in Ulcinj – has finally been equipped with a special rescue scooter? The Maritime Safety and Port Management Authority decided enough is enough and deployed a professional lifeguard with a Rescuerunner scooter for the entire summer season.
Why is Big Beach so dangerous?
This area is notorious for strong sea currents, frequent weather changes, and the mouth of the Bojana River, making it one of the most challenging and risky parts of the Ulcinj Riviera. In past years, there have been many emergencies requiring quick response, and now that response is finally possible thanks to this new system.
How does the rescue scooter work?
The Rescuerunner is a special scooter designed for water rescue operations. The professional lifeguard operating it can react quickly and reach endangered people much faster than traditional methods. It’s part of the national SAR (Search and Rescue) system, meaning it’s integrated into a broader emergency response network.
Why does this matter?
The Maritime Safety Authority claims that the constant presence of a trained lifeguard and rescue scooter will significantly reduce response times and increase safety for all sea users. This isn’t just a tech story; it’s about saving lives and preventing tragedies that have happened all too often.
Is this enough?
Of course, there’s always room for improvement, but this is a huge step forward for Montenegro. While many fear the sea currents and unpredictable weather, now there’s someone ready to react in seconds. Maybe it’s time other dangerous areas get this kind of protection too.
