The sandy "Montenegrin Miami"
Founded over 2500 years ago, Budva was already old by the time ancient Greek settlers arrived to expand it, although most of its architecture and walls are Venetian. The Old Town is car-free and features a large citadel. The main square is home to all four of the town's churches. Venture further out, and you'll find the city's famous nightlife, musical and dance festivals, casinos that might remind you of "Casino Royale," and the luxury yachts they draw.
Route for Budva tour
But there's a calmer side to Budva. Located at the center of the Budva Riviera, this town excels in beaches amid stunning natural scenery. A brief ferry ride will take you to quiet Sveti Nikola Island. We recommend at least one day trip up or down the coast, such as to the Bay of Kotor (Europe's southernmost fjord), or Ulcinj, near the Albanian border.
