A relatively undiscovered jewel to the north of Croatia, the intimate Adriatic island of Losinj is famed for its rich nature, counting more than 1,200 aromatic and healing herbs and more than 2,600 hours of sunshine every year. A step away from the tourist crowds courtesy of the short air or sea transfer from mainland Croatia, Losinj remains an unspoilt idyll for those seeking tranquilly and discretion.
