WHY LOŠINJ

Lošinj, island of vitality

Lošinj has long been known as a destination where moderate Mediterranean micro-climate and unique blend of natural sea aerosols, abundant medicinal plant life and essential oils, all combine with the island's clean air and sea to form the “anti-asthmatic” air the quality of which has been reconised from the 19th century.

Climate and Aerosols

Lošinj’s climate and natural aerosols have a beneficial effect on pulmonary function of the people who visit Lošinj. These effects have been proven by spirometry, which was used to measure the parameters of patients’ pulmonary function upon their arrival and prior to their departure from the island.

Natural Aromatherapy

Counting over 1,018 plant species, 939 of which are indigenous, the island of Lošinj is a perfect destination for those who want to treat various diseases and conditions as a supplementary therapy to the traditional medicine. Aromatherapy is extremely efficient and applicable in all elements of human life and, in many cases, its effects are equal to those of traditional medicine.

Composition & Healing Sea

As a destination that boasts several beaches with the Blue Flag, a symbol of preservation of the environment, the island of Lošinj offers the possibility for swimming along its entire coast, while high seawater quality confirms the fact that Lošinj knows how to manage the environment responsibly.

Pine Forest & Healing Herbs

The island’s vegetation is lush all year, and the plants greatly affect the quality of aerosols and microclimate. In fact, staying in dense coniferous forests if suffering from lung diseases has been strongly recommended since the ancient times.

Over the years, numerous visitors who suffer from breathing disorders like asthma, bronchitis and COPD have already reaped the benefits of Lošinj’s ideal climate conditions.
