Ćunski is situated 8 km from Mali Lošinj. It developed on a hill, which was the site of one of many prehistoric hill forts on the island of Lošinj. Cultivating the fertile fields nearby, many settlers eked out a livelihood and so it grew and developed to its present-day borders. Cultivating fields of wheat and vegetables as well as vineyards, the nearby hills were planted with olive trees, which, from year to year, yielded the precious olive oil. Apart from agriculture and fishing, in recent years tourism has started to develop and so in conjunction with the presentation and promotion of local authentic sites is the oil mill – TORAĆ – a place combining the past with the present. As part of its rich inheritance, the wish is to present and exhibit to tourists the reconstruction of TORAĆ – the only remaining old mill for olives (so-called «TORAĆ» in the local dialect) was built in 1897. Ćunski at one time boasted a population of 600 inhabitants but to-day the number is 150. There is a spiritual retreat centre here called Betanija where the faithful from all over the world congregate and where the rev. Zlatko Sudac, when in residence, receives pilgrims. This is also the birthplace of the bishop of Krk, Valter Župan. On the road below Ćunski is the starting point for the tourist trail on the ascent to the hill called Osoršćic. Ćunski is connected daily by bus with Mali and Veli Lošinj as well as with Cres, Osor and Nerezine. On the main road below Ćunski a paved side road leads to a sports airfield. There is the possibility of private accommodation - in apartments and private rooms.

Ćunski se nalazi 8 kilometara od Malog Lošinja. Nastao je na brijegu koji je nosio jednu od brojnih pretpovijesnih gradina otoka Lošinja. Obrađivanjem nedalekoga plodnog polja našlo je opstojanje mnogo naseljenika pa se i naselje razvijalo i širilo do sadašnjih građevnih granica. Uz obradu polja za žitarice i povrće te vinovu lozu, obližnja su brda bila zasađena maslinovim stablima koja su iz godine u godinu davala dragocjeno maslinovo ulje. Osim poljoprivrede i ribarstva, u zadnje se vrijeme razvija i turizam pa se u sklopu prezentacije i promicanja mjesnih autentičnosti, nudi uljara – TORAĆ – kao prostor koji ophodi s prošlošću i sadašnjošću. Dio bogatoga naslijeđa želi se izložiti i prikazati turistima u prepravljenom Toraću. Taj jedini preostali stari mlin za masline – torać po domaću, sagrađen je oko 1897. godine. U Ćunskom se nalazi Dom za duhovne susrete Betanija, susretište vjernika iz cijeloga svijeta, u kojem često boravi i prima vjernike vlč. Zlatko Sudac. Odavde je rodom i sadašnji biskup krčke biskupije Valter Župan. Na cesti pod Ćunskim je polazna točka turističkog puta za uspon na brdo Osoršćicu. Ćunski je svakodnevnom autobusnom linijom povezan s Malim i Velim Lošinjem te isto tako sa Cresom, Osorom i Nerezinama. S glavne ceste pod Ćunskim odvojak vodi do lošinjskog aerodroma.
