Ilovik

Ilovik sits at the southern tip of the Lošinj archipelago, with a permanent population under 100 in a single village. The village is famous for the oleander bushes that line every street — over 200 species planted by sailors returning from voyages over the centuries. The harbour is a narrow channel between Ilovik and the smaller islet of Sveti Petar, where an 11th-century stone chapel and a few ruined monastery walls still stand. Boats moor in the channel and you swim across to the islet in 5 minutes. Ilovik is 90 minutes from Mali Lošinj. Season runs May through October.
