Porozina
Porozina is a small port town in Croatia, located on the northwest coast of Cres. It is connected by ferry to Brestova (Kršan municipality) on the Istria mainland. The old town is situated upon a hillock above the port, and in the last two decades a new holiday neighbourhood has been built. In the Classical era there was a lighthouse on the hillock above the port, that is how the town got its name (Pharum insulae). The settlement is situated in a cove on the north of the island. The cove offers good natural protection from all the winds, so this spot was the only one suitable for docking from time immemorial.
