Our little paradise

CLIMATE

Our little paradise, so called by the people who experienced it, is famous for its gentle Mediterranean micro-climate that creates the most amazing fresh air, delightful temperatures and crystal clear sea with more than 200 sunny days per year. However, every once in a while, we are surprised with a sudden change of weather and strong Bora windstorm that reminds us about the eternal balance of the Nature. But don’t you worry, because Bora also clears your spirit as well as particles from the air so it is perfect opportunity to visit famous highlands as they offer the most breathtaking views. For that occasion, we have several aces in our sleeves that will make you appreciate weather storms even more!
Today, Lošinj is Croatia’s leading destination offering ideal conditions for allergy sufferers,
improving respiratory health and aiding physical and psychological recovery.

HISTORY

In the 19th century, local sailors and captains planted thousands of exotic plants and medicinal herbs collected from their voyages. As a result, Lošinj became one of the most desired holiday destinations for Austro–Hungarian aristocracy of whom built numerous villas and mansions on the island.
In 1892 the Austrian-Hungarian Monarchy’s Ministry of Health proclaimed the island of Lošinj a climatic health resort. This was due to the exceptional characteristics of Lošinj micro-climate.

NATURE
