The specialized Food, Wine & Travel (FWT) magazine has made a list of the 11 best travel destinations for 2018 and included the Croatian island of Lošinj.

American bloggers and travel writers chose all the 11 world destinations featuring many wonderful places around the globe.
When it comes to the island of Lošinj, the US travel blogger Cacinda Maloney recommended the island as a must-visit destination for 2018.

Maloney described Lošinj as an island of vitality, which remains in your memory due to the wonderful coast, crystal clear sea and fresh air. She also praised the beauty of the Čikat Bay, a hotel offer and top class spa programs emphasizing that the Condé Nast Johansens Award for Excellence in the category Best Destination Spa was awarded to the Bellevue Hotel last year. Maloney was also thrilled with the unique Apoksiomen Museum, a local gastronomic offer as well as with the neighbouring islands of Ilovik and Cres.

‘’Losinj Island in Croatia is, after all, known as the Island of Vitality where wealthy Europeans came to get away from the hard, cold winters for centuries. They came to this tiny island to cleanse their bodies and minds. Literally, before medical tourism was even a thing. It is said the island has special health benefits because of the fresh air mixed with sea salt and pine trees. But not only that, it is a gorgeous seaside village of fewer than 10,000 inhabitants with a simple way of life. You will absolutely be delighted to spend some time here along the coast of the crystal clear waters of the Mediterranean Sea’’, wrote Maloney for the FWT magazine.
