Mali Losinj (Losin) - General Info
Description:
This very narrow island lies just SW of the island of Cres and is barely separated from it by a narrow canal, spanned by an opening bridge.
The canal separating Losinj and Cres is about 10m wide and has a strong current. If possible, take a close look at the canal before entering it with your boat. On the south side there are buoys where yachts can moor and wait.

Losinj will always for me be a beautiful island with interesting bays and places to vist. However, I will never try and enter the city harbour of Mali Losinj again (located in the centre of the town). (N44.533013, E14.467355)
Reason – In August 2017 I wanted to enter this harbor for the 3rd time in 2017, always with about 4-8 people on board. This time they refused me and many other sailboats a berth. The reason we got from the staff and their “boss” (I talked with him several times in 2017, thus knew who he was) was that we didn’t have a length of 25m or more. Me and my crew did not believe what we heard.
My boat is a 43.5 ft catamaran and there were 3-4 places for a catamaran open and about 10 monohulls.
There was a pretty strong thunderstorm approaching and we were lucky to get the last berth in (private) “Marina Losinj on the E side of the bay just beside the refuling station. We were pretty lucky because many boats had to get out of the bay before the storm set in.
This “Marina Losinj” is a bit away from the town but has a nice restaurant on the second floor, good food at reasonable prices, and great views over the bay.
