Losinj Beaches
by Krzysztof & Grazyna from Warsaw, Poland

Losinj is an island of the Kvarner archipelago in the northern part of the Adriatic. The island is known for mild climate, beautiful landscapes and a community of approximately 150 dolphins living in the sea around the island. The most known places of the island are towns of Mali Losinj, Veli Losinj and Rovenska. Due to good bus and ferry links Losinj can be a starting point to visit nearby islands of Cres, Susak, Unije, Ilovik and Rab.

Mali Losinj is the biggest settlement of the island. This is a lively, tourist town but its uninhabited surroundings are a true paradise for those who prefer to be alone and who love quietness and contact with nature.

The most known hotels in Mali Losinj are located in two big bays of Cikat and Suncana Uvala. The Cikat bay does not seem to be a perfect place for Suncana Uvalanaturists unless you are very brave…. Just too many people walk by a sea promenade. The nearest and most popular nude beach is situated in the Suncana Uvala, close to the Borik restaurant. This is an official naturist beach with an admission fee of 6 kunas (EUR 1 is approximately KN 7). The area is partly enclosed with fence, there is a snack bar, showers and beach equipment can be rented. As I saw some people try to avoid to pay admission fee, they just go by a footpath to the end of the barriers…..

Suncana Uvala is a typical Croatian rocky beach. Unfortunately it can be crowded because of the vicinity of two big hotels (Aurora and Vespera).

We do not like places like this so after few hours we decided to move further on… The island of Losinj has a very well marked network of tourist footpaths leading through makia and pine forests to many hidden coves that are just ideal for naturists. Detailed map of trails is available at free at local tourist offices.

CuanguskiOne kilometer away from the Suncana we have discovered a lovely, wonderful beach of Cuanguski with real golden sand (!!). This bay is very small, just for a dozen of people and is suitable for families with children. This is not official FKK beach but when we visited this place, everybody was nude. There is a small rural konoba nearby, so you can drink some beer or take a meal.

During our stay in Mali Losinj we have also found other coves in southern part of the island. All these beaches can be reached by easy footpaths leading along the shores or descending from road on the Sv. Ivan Mount. We recommend you to visit bays of Krivica and Plieski. The Krivica bay is very picturesque when you approach this from the mount of Sv. Ivan and gives a safe shelter for yachts. Plieski is a wonderful place with rocky shore and sandy sea bottom. Other coves like Vinikova or Sv. Gaudient can also be used by naturists.
