Lake Skadar
Lake Skadar, on the border with Albania, is Southern Europe's largest natural lake. It's a great place to get back to nature, as it's home to a variety of migratory birds and other wildlife. The lake's Montenegrin side has been designated as a national park. Explore the lake by boat and spend some time exploring the villages that dot it. Many are UNESCO World Heritage sites and date back to the 13th century.
Murici Beach, located on the lake's southwestern shore, is a pristine and quiet stretch of shoreline backed by the stunning Rumija Mountain Range. The beach is accessible via a steep road that leads to a small village on the lake's edge. This is a great place to just get away and enjoy the fresh air and countryside atmosphere. This is one of the wonderful destinations in Montenegro you must not miss.
