The Graumann-Chrismann family from Bergkamen traveled to the Polari campsite in Rovinj, Croatia. The trip includes four generations: Steven Graumann, his wife Saskia Chrismann, daughter Elina, Saskia's mother Manuela Langenkämper, and grandmother Herlinde Verschüren. Croatia receives over three million German tourists annually. For Steven and Saskia, this vacation is also tied to their personal history: the engagement took place at a campsite on Achensee, and the wedding night was spent in a camper.

A camper van and a car collided on road 106 between the Pag Bridge and the town of Pag. Three people were taken to Zadar hospital for assessment and treatment. The road has been closed to all traffic since 9:45 a.m. pending investigation.

Camper van and motorhome tourism is booming in Croatia as more travelers seek flexible, mobile exploration of the country. Key drivers include the ability to move spontaneously between beaches, islands, and coastal towns without fixed hotel schedules. Croatia's long coastline, scenic roads, and compact distances make it particularly attractive. However, the boom also brings challenges: overcrowded campsites, illegal parking, and pressure on coastal infrastructure, especially in environmentally sensitive areas.

On Saturday, Croatia saw the start of the first major tourist weekend, while neighboring countries enjoyed a long weekend due to the Pentecost holiday, causing severe traffic congestion on Slovenian roads that partially extended into Croatia. Slovenian television reported kilometer-long queues on the Ljubljana bypass, where a camper van overturned, closing the road for several hours; no injuries were reported. The Croatian Automobile Club reported a queue of about 2 km at the Zaprešić toll plaza on the A2 highway.
