Oriental is the sailing capitol of North Carolina, and this weekend (May 31st-June 2nd) marks just one of the awesome events that secures Oriental's title; the Dragon's Breath Regatta hosted by the Oriental Dinghy Club. It'll be two days of racing, with a dinner on Saturday night, and trophies on Sunday afternoon. This event welcomes all PHRF boats over 20 feet with spinnaker, JAM, and cruising fleets. It's going to be a fun event for all! The perfect time to make a trip out to Oriental or if you've never been, discover the village for the first time.
