Praktische Infos
Budva's Old Town, or Stari Grad, is a maze of narrow streets and stone buildings that date back to the Venetian period. Inside the walls, you'll find the Church of Santa Maria in Punta, which hosts classical music concerts in its small, atmospheric space. Just outside the Old Town, Slovenska Plaža is a popular beach, but for a quieter spot, head to Mogren Beach, a short walk through a shaded path from the Old Town. For a taste of Montenegrin cuisine, try the seafood at Jadran Kod Krsta, located right on the waterfront. Their grilled octopus and black risotto are local favorites. If you're visiting in summer, the Sea Dance Festival on Jaz Beach is a highlight, drawing international acts and thousands of music fans. Budva's hinterland offers more than just coastal beauty. A short drive inland takes you to the village of Lastva Grbaljska, where you can experience traditional Montenegrin life and visit the 15th-century St. Sava Church. The area is also known for its olive groves, which produce some of the region's finest oils.
