Petrovac
A serene spot for family vacations in between Budva and Bar!
The town's main beach is a magnificent crescent-shaped bay formed of a reddish gravelly sand and is backed by an attractive green treelined promenade. Along the promenade, and particularly at the north end of the bay, you will find an abundance of bars cafes and excellent seafood restaurants. Right on the top of the north bay, you will also find the remains of a sixteenth-century Venitian fortress (Kastel Lastva) sheltering the tiniest of harbours.
The resort of Petrovac is located between the town of Budva and the town of Bar, which is the location of a major international seaport in Montenegro and therefore offers heightened accessibility from the sea. There is also an airport in nearby Tivat, and there is a network of bus routes offering access to various locations around, and outside, Montenegro. The coastal towns of Montenegro are all connected by the Adriatic motorway, which carries on past Herceg Novi at the foot of the herbal and medicinal haven that is Mount Orjen and over the border to Croatia. Some of the top quality hotels in the area and surrounding areas are world-renowned for their location and service, but mainly for the location.
Petrovac offers a wide range of possible water activities, such as scuba diving, speed boat riding etc. and there is also a diving school where you can take classes while on vacation.
There are a lot of relatively new or refurbished holiday accommodation options in Petrovac. The area has risen in popularity as a holiday and tourist resort over the last century, prompting investments into tourism requirements and amenities. The beauty of this region is not just in the area itself but also in the accessibility it offers to a diverse range Mediterranean holiday experiences in Montenegro, from a peaceful holiday in serene surroundings to a hub of cultural activity and high-class restaurants and nightspots.
