Košljun je mali otočić smješten nedaleko mjesta Krk i Punat na otoku Krku. Lokalci ga zovu Mostir. To je pravi mali dragulj – šumski rezervat prirode i spomenik kulture. Postoji vrlo zanimljiva legenda o nastanku otočića. Naime, cijela Puntarska draga je bila polje koje su obrađivala dva brata od kojih je jedan bio slijep. Iako su zajedno radili na zemlju, prilikom podjele ljetine brat je prevario slijepog brata. Na to se naljutio sam Bog i potopio morem čitavo polje, a sačuvao jedino kuću slijepog brata s okolnim posjedom. U rimsko doba je na otoku postojala villa rustika. U 11. stoljeću na temeljima ville benediktinci podižu samostan svete Marije od kojeg se sačuvala samo romanička kula. U 15. stoljeću odlaze benediktinci i dolaze franjevci. Od 1894. do 1928. na otoku je djelovala Franjevačka gimnazija, prva hrvatska gimnazija u tadašnjoj austrougarskoj pokrajini Istri. Franjevački samostan je i danas aktivan. Na Košljun se može doći iz Punta ili Krka brodicama. Na otoku nije dozvoljeno kupanje, osim za redovnike na zatvorenom dijelu obale. Ljeti se u atriju samostana održavaju koncerti klasične i sakralne glazbe.
