Mali Losinj is a charming town located on the island of Losinj in Croatia. Known for its stunning beaches, crystal clear waters, and beautiful architecture, Mali Losinj is a must-visit destination for anyone traveling to Croatia. Visitors can explore the town’s rich history by visiting the Apoxyomenos Museum and the Church of St. Martin. The town is also famous for its delicious cuisine, including fresh seafood and traditional Croatian dishes. For those seeking a more relaxed vacation, the town’s beautiful parks and gardens offer the perfect escape.
Mali Lošinj, the largest town on Lošinj Island, is a stunner. Set at the apex of a long natural harbour and ringed by graceful, gently weathered Mediterranean town houses and green hills, the town straddles both coasts on the narrowest section of the island. A string of imposing 19th-century sea-captains’ houses lines the seafront, and even with the summer tourist commotion, this historic quarter retains its charm and atmosphere.
Like so many of Croatia’s islands, Lošinj is long, thin and easily accessible. I arrived via a flight to Pula and then a direct ferry, you can also reach this island by flying into Rijeka and taking a bus or ferry, or by island-hopping from Zadar. I’ve lost count of the Croatian islands I’ve visited, but I do now notice how different they can be from one another. Lošinj’s key selling point? Nature.
