Le Mandrac is a modern seafood restaurant that sits at the waters edge in this picturesque harbour. We were so impressed we went back a second time during our 7 day visit. They have a great selection of fine wines and serve a good variety dishes as well as fish. This place is food heaven and we recommend it highly.

Favorite Dish: All the dishes we had were excellent and they insist on using the freshest of ingredients.

Opatija in the distance !

...Definitely you would want to reach Opatija.
My advise is walking along Volosko embankment...until you reach Opatija.
You can arrive in Opatija...the so-called 'The Playground For The Rich...' ; by bike, by car, by bus....

My sweet memory in Volosko...

Fondest memory: Lucky me that I could find a woman walking along the promenade at that early hours of the day.
She couldn't speak good English, she's German.
Asked her to take a photo of me, just for the memory being in Volosko !...
