The RIB cuts through the Adriatic like a hand through glass; spray sparking, horizon low and blue as the skipper angles toward a small cove. Within minutes, the shoreline shifts from Zadar’s harbor stone to the limestone ribs of the archipelago—Frnaža Bay’s sandy pocket, the working pier at Kali, and the glassy bowl of Otrić Bay.
