Mediterranean Sea
The Mediterranean Sea contains the Adriatic. AlgoCatch currently publishes bathymetry, Folk-5 seabed, and species habitats for the Adriatic arm (Slovenia, Croatia, and the north-east Italian strip from Trieste to Ancona). Further Mediterranean coasts are not in the public vocabulary until a coast and place catalog exists.
Adriatic Sea
Northern arm of the Mediterranean. AlgoCatch maps bathymetry, Folk-5 seabed classes, and species habitats along the north-east Italian Adriatic from Trieste to Ancona, the Slovenian coast, Istria, Kvarner, and Dalmatia.
Coasts
Dalmatia is the central and southern Croatian Adriatic coast in this catalog. Published places are Pag, Zadar, Šibenik, Murter, Split, Hvar, Vis, Korčula, and Dubrovnik. Pag is listed with Dalmatia in this index. Its wind and flats logic is shared with Kvarner, so read both if you are deciding a side. Split is a corridor and harbour problem as much as a fish problem. Vis is drop and rock where public zones exist. Šibenik and Murter are channel and archipelago water. Hvar, Korčula, and Dubrovnik are longer ferry legs and mixed-to-rock edges. Folk-5 varies: sand on some Pag flats, mixed in channels, rock on outer islands. A habitat score is still not a census. Distances look short on a road map. Ferry and wind still decide the day. Licence is Croatian. This card is the coast entity. Child place pages hold the local water.
Istria is the largest peninsula in the northern Adriatic, on the Croatian side. Fishing maps cover the west and north coasts. Child places are Pula, Rovinj, Poreč, Umag, and Savudrija. North of Umag the water is a shallow sand and mixed plate toward Savudrija. A hundred metres off a class change can be empty even when the depth looks the same. Poreč is western bays, tourist hours, and mixed edges. Rovinj is rock, islands, and mixed ground, not a surfcast-first riviera. Pula is a harbour with mixed approaches. Folk-5 here is readable: sand, mixed, and local rock. A habitat score is a model match, not a fish count. Anchor on a substrate change is the usual first sit. Dawn surfcast belongs on the sandy north, not on every quay. Working depths are mostly shallow to mid. Bora and jugo still decide whether a small boat leaves. This is Croatian water and a Croatian permit. It is not the Slovenian strip and not the Italian corridor. This card is the coast entity. Town pages hold the pin.
Kvarner is the northern Adriatic gulf and island group in Croatia. Published maps cover Cres, Krk, and Rab. Pag is grouped with Dalmatia in the location index. Its wind and flats logic is shared with this gulf, so read both if you are choosing a side. Channel water and fetch matter more here than on the Istrian shallows. Krk is a side-choice island with mixed Folk-5. Cres is current-line water and mixed-to-rock edges. Rab sits between the gulf and the Pag approaches. Stay-ashore is part of a real week when bora or jugo stops a small boat. Habitat scores remain model match. Do not treat this gulf as a wilder Istria. It is a different clock: wind, channel, and ferry traffic. Working lines are typically shallow to mid on mixed and rock. A habitat score is not a census. Licence is Croatian. This card names the coast. Town pages name the pin.
The north-east Italian Adriatic in this catalog runs from Trieste to Ancona. It includes the Gulf of Trieste, the Veneto sea-side barrier, Po Delta approaches, Emilia-Romagna sand, and the northern Marche harbour at Ancona. Child places are Trieste, Venezia Lido, Chioggia, Po Delta, Rimini, and Ancona. Coverage is sea-side only. Lagoon interior, freshwater Po, and anything south of Ancona are out of scope. Sand and mixed Folk-5 dominate. Local harder belts exist at Trieste and Ancona; they are not Dalmatian island rock. Trolling and shore-jigging overlays are not Italy-complete. A habitat score is a model match. The permit is Italian. After a Po flood the water can stay unreadable for days; the class did not vanish. Dawn surfcast on open sand is the shore line that is safe to name. This card is the coast entity. Place pages hold the pin. Do not paste Croatian species essays onto Rimini sand.
The Slovenian Adriatic coast is the short strip between Italy and Croatia. Published maps cover Koper, Izola, and Piran. Distances are short. Harbour, mixed Folk-5, and sand edges sit next to each other. This is not a first-week substitute for Istria. Use it if you already sleep in Koper, Izola, or Piran. The permit is Slovenian, not Croatian and not Italian. Habitat scores are model match. Working water is typically shallow to mid. Anchor on a class change and early shore windows are the honest methods to name. Bora and harbour traffic still stop a small-boat day. Koper is the working harbour. Izola and Piran sit on mixed and sand edges toward the Croatian line. This card is the coast entity. Place pages hold the pin. Do not treat a pan of the basemap as extra coverage south or west of this strip.
