Veli Lošinj: Webcam
The Adriatic Sea defines the setting of Veli Lošinj — its sheltered harbour folds into the eastern coast of Lošinj Island, concentrating waterfront houses, quays and boats along a narrow inlet. This long-settled port was once an important centre of Lošinj’s seafaring tradition, reflected in the close relationship between the town and its harbour. Stone steps descend to the water beside a compact row of pastel-coloured façades, while the Parish Church of St Anthony Abbot and its bell tower rise above the quayside. Veli Lošinj retains the scale of a small island settlement, yet its harbour remains central to everyday life and to travel around the Kvarner islands.

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.

The terrain of Primorje-Gorski Kotar County ranges from Adriatic islands and coastal bays in its southwest to forested highlands in Gorski Kotar to the northeast, giving the county a pronounced maritime-to-mountain character. Kvarner Bay links the port city of Rijeka with islands including Krk, Cres and Lošinj, while the Velebit Channel marks part of the coast farther south. Rijeka has long been Croatia’s principal seaport and was a European Capital of Culture in 2020. Inland, the wooded slopes and karst terrain of Gorski Kotar contrast sharply with the exposed shore and island settlements.

Croatia occupies a long Adriatic coastline in southeastern Europe. Its shore is broken into islands and sheltered coves, while the Dinaric Alps rise inland and the Danube forms part of its eastern border. Dubrovnik’s fortified old city faces the sea, and Split grew around Diocletian’s Palace, a Roman complex begun in the early fourth century. Inland, Plitvice Lakes National Park is known for terraced lakes linked by waterfalls and has been a UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1979. Istrian olive groves, Zagreb and Slavonia’s vineyards reveal distinct regional identities.
