Lovran

The charming scent of bay leaf trees (=lovor) for which Lovran was named is the very first greeting visitors can expect to get when they come to this town dappled with villas dating back to the early days of Croatian tourism. A relaxing walk along the romantic Lungomare promenade, a string which connects the pearls of the Opatija riviera, is only a small sampling of the idyllic vacation that awaits here. Lovran aims to seduce also with the flavor of its specialties. The town is specially known for cherries and chestnuts, and these feature in many of the most attractive dishes.
