Where to swim in Montenegro + map
Montenegro is bordered by a large and beautiful coastline, alternating beaches of white sand or ash and pebble beaches. Most of the beaches are equipped with sunbeds at low prices. Other more isolated and picturesque beaches are less frequented even in the peak tourist season. You are bound to find something you like!
Kotor beach, Kotor
The Bay of Kotor is located in a beautiful natural setting, which offers real postcard landscapes. Good news, some coves are equipped with deckchairs and the water is translucent.
The one next to the old town is perfect for a refreshing swim in a heavenly environment. This is our favorite beach of the stay.
Pebble beach, deckchair + parasol about 5€.
If you’d like a different view of the bay and its cliffs, don’t hesitate to book a boat trip, lasting around 3 hours, which will take you through several caves in the vicinity, before taking a dip in the translucent waters away from the crowds. In short, an essential part of our trip!
Murici beach, Lake Shkodra
Small secluded beach, with translucent water, overlooking the beautiful lake Shkodra. The road to get there is narrow, so we advise you to be patient, as it’s a heavenly spot that really deserves some effort.
Pebble beaches
Long beach – Velika plaza , Ulcinj
This beach is 2 km long, and if you go as far away from the town as possible, you’ll come to a less crowded stretch. You will see many kit surfers in the distance who come to enjoy the beautiful waves.
Ashen sand beaches, deckchair + parasol about 5€.
Jaz beach, Budva
Large beach with translucent water, close to the town of Budva and therefore popular with tourists. On the left, facing the beach, you’ll find non-privatized areas.
Pebble beach, deckchair + parasol about 10€, parking 2€.
Valdanos beach, Ulcinj
Pretty cove lined with olive trees, crystal-clear water. The cliffs in the distance offer a delightful setting. Some areas of the beach are not private.
Pebble beach, deckchair + parasol about 6€.
Mogren beach, Budva
This beautiful cove with crystal clear water can be reached from Budva on foot in just a few minutes.
It is also very busy. In high season, we advise you to go at the end of the day, when the crowds thin out and you can enjoy the sunset over the town of Budva.
Pebble beach, deckchair + parasol about 10€.
Sveti Stefan, Budva
This almost island is a must see for its incredible panorama. It should be noted that a good part of the island is privatized by the hotels. Take your time to snap a few photos, then take a dip in the clear water.
➡️ Nous vous conseillons de vous rendre à l’eglise Saint Sava (à environ 5km) pour avoir un très beau point de vue sur la baie et la plage de Sveti Stefan. Un très beau moment de notre séjour.
