Porcijunkula blessing of the boats
On the feast day of Our Lady of the Angels - Portiuncula, owners of boats and ships from Krk, Cres and Lošinj have sailed for centuries to Glavotok, a 15th century Franciscan Glagolitic monastery, to receive a blessing for their vessels and crew.
With a desire to revitalize this tradition and further promote it as an integral part of the local maritime heritage, DUBoak - the interpretation center of maritime heritage, is organizing a special program intended for all lovers of the sea and boats.
Get to know local customs with us, enjoy beautiful landscapes, maritime cuisine, local wines and good company!
