The 10 Best Things to Do in Budva, Montenegro

August 21, 2017 Kaleigh Reichenbach

Budva (Montenegrin Cyrillic: Будва, pronounced [bûːdv̞a] or [bûdv̞a]) is a Montenegrin town on the Adriatic Sea, former bishopric and present Latin Catholic titular see. It has around 14,000 inhabitants, and it is the centre of Budva Municipality. The coastal area around Budva, called the Budva riviera, is the center of Montenegrin tourism, known for its well-preserved medieval walled city, sandy beaches and diverse nightlife. Budva is 2,500 years old, which makes it one of the oldest settlements on the Adriatic coast.

Altstadt (Old Town) Budva

Reviewed By Ciaran32 - St Helens, United Kingdom

The Old walled town of Budva sits on a promontory just steps away from its far more modern counterpart but is quite separate and distinct from it. An archway, one of several, takes you into a positive Dreamland of alleyways and cobbled squares with something new to see at every turn from glorious architecture to quaint shops. My wife and I spent a good couple of hours window shopping, visiting the " museum ", watching a wedding, having a meal and taking photos. It was a lovely day and a great experience. I enjoyed it more than Dubrovnik which was too crowded for my liking. The only word of warning I have is that if you go through one of the portals to the beach side of the old town to stand there and take photos watch out for the tide....I didn't and promptly got a good soaking!!!

Becici Beach

Reviewed By CYBERJIMBO - Irvine, United Kingdom

Plenty of eating places around and hotels have their own areas cordoned off for guests with sunbeds and brollies. sand is rough and the usual small shingle at the shore so water shoes makes it so much easier and dignified trying to exit the water.

Milocher Park

Reviewed By Alex90028 - Los Angeles

I always recommend this on the Montenegro Messageboard. You can take the little shuttle bus that runs every 10 minutes from Budva to Sveti Stefan, walk down to the beach from the Sveti Stefan exit, have lunch at the little beach bar in fron of Sveti Stefan. Enjoy the views and walk thru the Pineforest to Milocer. The views are stunning(the walk is 10 minutes). It makes a great half day trip or lay on the beach all day afterwards. It is one of the most beautiful places on earth

Ballet Dancer Statue

Reviewed By CMT-JWT - Montreal, Canada

The sculpture is an enjoyable sight, against the backdrop of Old Budva. It is on a walkway from the city to another beach. The sight is sometimes disturbed by silly (mostly Russians) taking pictures and selfies with sculpture......enjoy it in any case......these people will pass

This is a great place to look at the Old Town. It costs 2.50 euros as entrance fee and there are not only great views of the Old town but also across the Bay

Budva City Walls

Reviewed By JnVSydney - Sydney

Being lovers of all things medieval, castles/fortresses/city walls, etc. these are right up our alley. we walked around the outside as much as we could, to fully appreciate the size, even on the inside you can get in amongst the nooks and crannies. Definitely a must do, when in Budva.
