Volosko (Italian: Volosco, Volosca) is a part of the city of Opatija, located in the Kvarner Gulf in western Croatia. It is located in the north of Opatija, on the road towards Kastav and Rijeka.
Volosko is situated on the west side of the Preluka Bay, which is well known for its good windsurfing and sailing conditions. Daily thermal wind locally known as Tramuntana blows regularly from the northern quadrant, each morning peaking just after the sunrise and ending couple of hours later.
If weather conditions are stable and under high pressure, the wind is consistent and strong enough to ensure active windsurfing (planing conditions) for couple of hours each morning, giving the Volosko and Preluk its unique quality as one of most consistent windsurfing spots on Adriatic coast.
Launch spots are at the beach near Preluk auto camp and within the Volosko harbor itself. Each season, local windsurfing club, DSNM Volosko is organizing one or more windsurfing races, open to both professional and amateur windsurfers.
