Budva Riviera

The Budva Riveria, which runs along the central Montenegrin coastline and is named after Budva, is one of the most popular summer beach destinations in Montenegro for both locals and tourists. The beaches here are a mix of sand and pebbles, surrounded on one side by the Adriatic Sea's clear, turquoise, and aquamarine-blue hues and on the other by dramatic mountains. The beach provides opportunities for relaxation as well as snorkeling, swimming, and diving, and there is a pop-up seafood market selling prawns, oysters, and squid.

The Riviera is home to a number of high-quality beaches, including Mogren Beach, which is only a five-minute walk from Old Town Budva along a seaside pathway. The beaches along the Budva Riviera are lined with restaurants with outdoor seating.

Visit the old town, which is surrounded by ancient walls and has cobbled streets for history buffs. You can also visit the Rustovo Monastery, which is still an active monastery on Chelobrdo Hill. Old Town Budva has a history that dates back 2,500 years. This medieval walled city has a lively atmosphere, as well as a town museum, restaurants, and shops.
