NEREZINE
The town is famous for its lush vegetation and beautiful, unpolluted sea.
From the hill Osorscica above Nerezine a view is offered on Losinj, the sea and the surrounding islands: Cres, Susak, Srakane, Unije; a nice path leads to the top.
On the St. Anna's Day the local population cherishes the tradition of climbing to the top of Osorscica where a mass is held in the St. Nicholas' Chapel.
Tourist resort Bucanje, situated between the coves Galboka and Studenac, almost connects Nerezine with Sveti Jakov (St. James).
