Just before the New Years Day, in picturesque waters of Hvar, a traditional international New Years Regatta, that attracts great attention from European navigators, is being held for categories “laser” and “optimist."
The organiser of this event is the sailing club Zvir (www.jkzvir.hr) from city of Hvar. By its long tradition, Hvar New Years Regatta gained great reputation, which brought significant commendation from ISAF and ILCA sailing federations.
