From September 3rd to 7th, Malinska will once again become the center for lovers of traditional sailing! We invite you to join the 7th edition of the event HOMO NA JDIRA, a celebration of the cultural heritage and maritime tradition of the Adriatic. During this period, Malinska will revive the spirit of the past, when traditional wooden boats, masterfully crafted and equipped, were the main vessels of the Adriatic coast. Along with the regattas, the event will offer a variety of cultural and musical performances, exhibitions, and tastings of local specialties, allowing you to experience the authentic spirit of Kvarner and the island of Krk. This is a unique opportunity to feel the connection with the sea, the history, and the traditions of our region, while enjoying the lively and joyful atmosphere of this one-of-a-kind event. 🌊
Don’t miss the chance to be part of this unforgettable experience!
