Lovran is a town with a long and rich past and a century-long tradition in tourism. It was named after the laurel tree (laurus nobilis), which grows abundantly in the evergreen groves in the town and its surroundings.

It is located on the eastern coast of Istria in Kvarner Bay, at the foot of Učka, the greenest and most vegetation-rich mountain on the Adriatic. It is 19 km from Rijeka, 14 km from the railway station in Matulji and 80 km from the airport in Pula.

Lovran is surrounded by high mountains to the north and west, including Učka (1,396 m), Snježnik (1,605 m) and Risnjak (1,528 m), while on the sea side it is surrounded by the islands of Krk and Cres. Such a position provides excellent protection from the winds. In the winter months, the most common wind is the bora from the north, bringing clear and cold weather, the sirocco brings rain and high humidity, and the maestral in summer brings freshness from the open sea and eases the heat and sultriness.

Lovran has preserved its historic core with a medieval urban concept. The old town was once surrounded by a defensive wall and bastions, on whose foundations and walls houses were later built.

The courtyards of the old town are a special feature of Mediterranean urban architecture. Behind the stone portal, the facades of neighboring houses can be seen, decorated with staircases, porches and skodovi, while in the middle of the courtyard rises the stone neck of a cistern.

In the 21st century, Lovran has a rich historical heritage, a century-long tourist tradition, preserved nature and developed infrastructure, which makes it possible for tourism to rise again through sustainable development and respect for environmental standards.

Good climate, lush Mediterranean vegetation and a favorable geographical position enabled strong tourism development at the turn of the 19th to the 20th century. Since then, Lovran, together with Opatija, has been the most important place on the famous Riviera, and several villas built at that time are considered part of the world architectural heritage.

The climate is Mediterranean with continental elements. The average winter air temperature is 7 °C, the summer temperature 22 °C, and the average annual temperature 13.3 °C. Sea temperature ranges from a minimum of 9 °C in winter to a maximum of 26 °C in August. Lovran has 2,230 hours of sunshine per year and an average rainfall of 1,500 liters per m2.

Specific microclimatic conditions have enabled the growth of rich Mediterranean vegetation and plant life. Along the coast itself grow laurel, palm, magnolia, various types of evergreen shrubs, downy oak, stone pines and cypresses. Above Lovran, in terraced gardens, cherries, vines and olives thrive, while forests of sweet chestnuts, the famous Lovran maruni, grow abundantly on deep, washed-out and acidified soils.

The abundance of vegetation and the high concentration of salt in the sea (37.8 ‰) result in a rich plant and marine aerosol in the air, which makes the climate of Lovran highly stimulating and beneficial for health.

Opatija is a coastal town located on the Adriatic Sea and a well-known tourist destination for guests from all over the world. The town is surrounded by beautiful nature at the foot of Mount Učka, and properties in Opatija offer views of the sea and the islands of Krk and Cres.

Opatija is surrounded by charming smaller towns with old houses in narrow streets full of rich history. The town stands out for its distinctive architecture and villas from the Habsburg period.

A wide selection of beaches, crystal-clear sea and a variety of tourist services make Opatija a recognized tourist destination and an excellent investment choice. Property prices in this area are rising, rental occupancy is excellent, and the return on investment ranges from 5% to 10%, which attracts foreign investors.
