Punta Križa

Punta Križa is a settlement on the island of Cres, but it is also the name of the southernmost part of that island, where, in addition to the village of Punta Križa, there are fifteen other hamlets. The village of Punta Križa is located in the south of the island of Cres, not far from its southernmost point. Administratively, the entire area, although on Cres, belongs to the town of Mali Lošinj. The name comes from the term raskršće, crossroads, because the village is located at the crossroads of roads that once connected primarily shepherd villages. According to the census from 2001, 61 inhabitants lived in Punta Križa. Of these, about 50 lived in the village of Punta Križa, and the remaining 10 in the surrounding hamlets. In 2021 Punta Križa had 46 inhabitants. Punta Križa was traditionally a shepherd's area. However, today, sheep farming is mostly only a supplementary source of income for the population, which is mainly engaged in tourism, more specifically, renting rooms and apartments. Electricity arrived in Punta Križa in 1970, and an asphalted road only in 1974 (until then part of the island could be reached on foot or by boat), and fixed telephony only in 1994.
