Holidays in Petrovac and Kotor

Petrovac is a small town on the Budva Riviera

Montenegro is famous for its abundance of picturesque towns and resorts. Therefore, a tourist who decides to visit this country faces the difficult task of choosing the best place to stay. However, determining an area that meets exactly your needs is not that difficult; you just need to study the conditions offered to its guests by a particular city or village in Montenegro.

For example, Petrovac, a small town on the Budva Riviera, located in a bay, can be an ideal place for a family vacation. From early spring until late autumn, warm, sunny weather prevails here, the purest sea waters beckon to swim, and dense pine forests and olive groves will surely become a wonderful place for walks.

Having obtained such an important document for a tourist as a map of Petrovac, you can easily navigate the maze of local streets, easily finding everything you need: the Venetian citadel Castello, the city promenade, the pier, the bus station, the clinic, a night club located in an old fortress building, etc.

At a distance of 1000 meters from the coast, there are two small islands: Sveta Nedelja and Katič. Cozy hotels have been built on their territory, and there is also a small church.

If you wish, you can order a speedboat or a boat and take a trip to these two islands along the coast of the Budva Riviera, or even ask to stop at uninhabited beaches (of course, for an hourly fee).

As for the medieval city of Kotor, it can be an excellent place for young and active people due to the presence of many nightclubs, restaurants, cafes, etc.

For older people, the Old Town will be interesting for the originality of its architectural ensemble, the power of the fortification system that emphasizes the beauty of the city buildings. Moreover, any map of Kotor confirms the fact that the fortress walls encircling the city serve as a kind of connecting link between it and the fortress of St. Ivan located in the mountains. The total length of these defensive structures is 4.5 km.

One of the main attractions of this ancient city is the Cathedral of Saint Tryphon, which is a vivid example of Romanesque architecture. Here are preserved remains of frescoes created back in the 14th century, as well as a rich sacristy containing works of Kotor and Venetian jewelers.
