Lateen sailed boats, Bay of Paulilles, Occitanie, France

Lateen sailed boats on the beach at Anse de Paulilles or the Bay of Paulilles, in Catalogne du Nord, France, part of the 'Vire-vire de caractere', celebrating Mediterranean maritime heritage. The festival takes place every 2 years, this 4th event being held on 5th and 6th September 2020. Paulilles is a protected area of the Mediterranean between Port-Vendres and Banyuls-sur-Mer in Pyrenees-Orientales. These colourful traditional catalan boats or barques catalanes with triangular sails, have been used since Roman times for fishing sardine and anchovy. Picture by Manuel Cohen
