Budva old town walls and Adriatic coastline

Destination

Budva

Budva is 90% of Montenegro's summer beach traffic. Doing Skadar Lake as a day trip from Budva is realistic but long — you'll want to leave early.

Getting there

Roughly 1 hour to Virpazar via the Sozina tunnel. Public transport is slow — a rental car or private transfer makes far more sense.

Want the most authentic experience?

A 4-hour private ride on a real Montenegrin wooden boat, leaving from tiny Poseljani instead of the crowded Virpazar dock.
