Mali Lošinj – Ne propustite
In the old times the islands of Cres and Lošinj used to be one island. The islands were later separated by an artificial canal at Osor to satisfy the needs of sea trade on the so-called Amber Route. Mali Lošinj dates back to the 12th century when twelve Hrvatskan families settled in the eastern bay St. Martin. The golden age for Mali Lošinj was the end of the 19th century when thanks to seafaring the “small village” turned into a maritime town. Mali Lošinj’s location, natural beauty and cultural heritage are the key ingredients of the Marina Lošinj mosaic. Mali Lošinj is surrounded by a well indented coast with many pebbly beaches, and of the most beautiful, Veli Žal, is located in the bay of Sunčana Uvala.
