Nerezine lies at the foot of the hill of Osoršaica on the eastern side of the island of Lošinj.

It was first mentioned as a bigger island settlement in the 14th century. Nerezine developed from numerous isolated houses that people built amid their own fertile land. Only later, as seafaring and shipbuilding developed, Nerezine assumed the characteristics of a coastal settlement.

Two holiday villages, two campsites, hotels and a great number of private rooms and holiday apartments offer comfortable accommodaton.The restaurants are known for excellent cuisine.
