Overview
Iktus Rowing Club in Osijek carries on a tradition of rowing on the Drava that goes back to 1892, when the Ruder Club "Drau" was founded; the club has carried the name Iktus since 1972. It is based on the riverside Šetalište kardinala Franje Šepera. Every autumn it runs the Miholjska regatta on the moving water of the Drava, and it also stages indoor-rowing competitions. Its crews race regularly at the Croatian rowing championship.
