We took the ferry from the peninsula of Istra to Porozina. From there it's about an hour drive to Cres and another hour to Losinj. On our way back we took the ferry at Merag to the island of Krk; then, we drove via Rijeka to Italy.
Cres is composed of 36 islands, islets and reefs. The highest peaks of Cres are 650 m (Gorice) and 648 m (Sis), and of Losinj 588 m (Televrin) and 557 m (St. Nikola). A phenomenon of the archipelago is the island of Susak - a limestone reef covered with fine sand. It is a place where the lifestyle, dress, speech and agriculture haven't changed at all for the past 500 years.
