    The correct answer is D. The commas between the reduced relative clause "located along the western coast of Croatia" are intended to mark that that information is additional and not essential to understand the message. The comma before 'since' indicates that there is a second part to the message and separates the main independent clause from the subordinate clause of reason. Choices A and B simply do not organize the information well and make it difficult for the reader to undertand the sentence. Choice C is possible, but it lacks the commas between the reduced relative clause, which are necessary to allow the reader to keep their rythm when reading aloud and especifying that it the information is additional and not essential.
