Veli Lošinj

Veli Lošinj sits on a sheltered bay of Lošinj Island in Croatia’s Primorje-Gorski Kotar County, where the northern Adriatic meets a long, indented island shore. Once Lošinj’s principal port, the settlement retains a compact waterfront shaped by its seafaring past, with former captains’ houses behind the harbour. The Baroque parish church of St Anthony the Hermit is a prominent local landmark, while the nearby Blue World Institute researches and protects Adriatic marine life, including dolphins. Pine woods and Mediterranean vegetation extend beyond the centre into quiet coves. Discover other points of interest through webcams located across Lošinj Island and the Kvarner Gulf.
