Diving expert and underwater explorer Velimir Vrzic announced on his Facebook page that he found a valuable women’s ring during a recent dive in Brestova ferry port in Istria.
Vrzic was on a quest with a very sweet objective: to find another piece of jewellery, a wedding ring lost in Brestova last summer by a woman who reached out to him having seen his explorations on social media. That particular ring unfortunately wasn’t found, but Vrzic instead came across another shiny object:
He kindly asked the public to share the announcement so the owner could be found before Valentine’s Day. While it hasn’t been established if the ring has any monetary value, it very likely has a notable sentimental value for its owner.
Vrzic also came out with a video of his dive that shows the moment he discovered the ring on the seabed, and shared more information about the find.
Brestova is a ferry port in the northeast of Istria, best known for the ferry service to Porozina port on Cres island. It typically sees a lot of traffic, especially in summer months; as Vrzic notes in his video, many travellers opt to take a dip while waiting for the ferry, as there’s a pristine beach located next to the ferry terminal. However, since they don’t stick around for long, swimmers usually forget to take off their jewellery, leading to many losing their valuable possessions. Definitely not something by which you’d want to remember your trip to Croatia!

The explorer says the ring is engraved and the rightful owner will surely know what the inscription says. He can be contacted via his Facebook page.
