The Latin sail is a sail that they have been using for centuries in the Murter area. For the people of Murter, it is still today a protected symbol. To give thanks to their sail, on the day of St. Michael, the patron saint of the parish of Murter, the people of Murter organise a regatta of traditional boats “leut”, “gajeta” and “kaić”. The regatta’s route follows the labourers’ routes of the former generations of Murter who sailed to their lands on Kornati on a daily basis. This sight of the open sails on the sea fills the hearts of all visitors with joy, and the regatta itself is, of course, followed by a variety of events. There are workshops in maritime skills, lectures, and exhibitions, and also the traditional snack of fried sardines.
