LOŠINJ...
your island oasis
Where the stars look beautiful like nowhere
else, where you breathe with your full
lungs, where waves of Istria, Kvarner
and Dalmatia intertwine, and where the
last North Adriatic school of dolphins
swim happily – that’s where the Lošinj
Archipelago is located.
It comprises the large and woody Lošinj,
fertile Unije, flowery Ilovik, sandy Susak,
Vele and Male Srakane and a number
of attractive smaller islands, rocks and
reefs. Popular locations include Punta
Križa with its rich biodiversity, Ustrine
with its magnificent view, and the ancient
Osor. Our Belej, Sveti Jakov, Nerezine,
Ćunski, Artatore and Veli Lošinj are
pearls of the Lošinj Archipelago.
Each one of them hides traces of past
times and our people carefully cultivate
the cultural heritage entrusted to them
– distinctive speech, folk costumes and
customs, adapted to a modern guest.
This is a magical place that will seduce
you with all its attributes – scents,
tastes, sounds and preserved natural
beauties. If you are revisiting this
island, you will want stay, and if you are
coming for the first time, you will want
to come back as soon as possible!

the island of vitality
Lošinj has a health tourism tradition
of over 120 years. Thanks to its mild
Mediterranean climate, pinewoods and
air, this is an ideal place to recreate
your body and spirit. Learn to live
with us, in harmony with nature!
The pleasant climate with more than 200
days of sunshine per year, an air full of
aerosols and Professor Ambroz Haračić are
the reasons why Lošinj was proclaimed a
health resort way back in 1892. Even back
then it became a favorite holiday spot for
the Austro-Hungarian aristocracy, whose
villas and summer residences still enrich
the cultural and tourist heritage of the
island. This is why we invite you to an
aroma quiz, natural herb tasting and an
exhibition of our flora during the Ambroz
Haračić Days in May.
Numerous animal and plant species have
found their home on Lošinj. This is an island
where everything smells like rosemary,
lemons and oranges, lavender and myrtle,
immortelle and sage, thyme and pines,
cyclamen, crocus and lilacs... This is an
island attracting with its aromas from afar
and luring its guests to surrender to all
senses – a unique aromatic oasis.
BREATHE IN...
Let yourself go! See what it’s like to be pampered
by nature that has given Lošinj 1018 plant species –
939 are autochthonous and 230 are herbs...

Regarding tourism, Lošinj was first mentioned in 1885 when
the first tourists on the island were formally registered. They
were Dr. Conrad Clar, a renowned Austrian physician, and
his son who had incurred a severe respiratory disease not
long before they arrived. The child recovered and Lošinj’s
reputation as a climate resort soon and suddenly blossomed.
That is how the story of health tourism started on this island
that still has top-quality air. However, if you think everything
else is history – you are wrong.
This is exactly why we provide an unforgettable year-round
experience on our archipelago.
