Sovereign Spotlight: Montenegro

At Sovereign Luxury Travel we have over 50 years’ experience and over this time we have discovered destinations that have lots to offer. We have travelled the world to bring you our extensive knowledge and secret treasures.

Without further ado, introducing the latest destination in our Sovereign Spotlight series for March…MONTENEGRO!

Montenegro is a hidden gem that is still relatively undiscovered. From breathtaking scenery to golden sandy beaches, history to architecture, it is just waiting to be explored. We’ve picked out a few of our favourite things about Montenegro for you to enjoy below.

Herceg Novi

North of the Gulf of Kotor, Herceg Novi dates back to the 14th century. Rich in history, the town has been ruled by Venetians, French, Austrians, Russians and Turks over the years and many of these influences are still present today. Many buildings benefit from World Heritage status; be sure to head to the Citadel at the top of the city for fantastic panoramic views of the surrounding mountains and the city below.

Kotor

The Bay of Kotor is up there with the most beautiful bays in the world and it’s no surprise why! Built many years ago by the Romans, it was then enhanced by the Venetians and today it is recognised by UNESCO for its fascinating old town. This preserved medieval city has lots to discover including the Kotor fortress. Climb to the top and be rewarded with stunning views across the bay. There is a tiny island, known as Our Lady of the Rocks, within the bay and it is so small that you can walk to either end in around a minute!

Porto Montenegro

Enjoy a relaxing day at Porto Montenegro, one of the only exclusive beach clubs in the country. Sit back and relax on one of the sunbeds looking out at the glistening water in the bay. Located in the city of Tivat, it is popular with luxury yacht owners, and you’ll find many grand boats docked in the harbour throughout the year. You’ll also find plenty to do here with bars, restaurants and shops lining the promenade. Grab a cocktail and watch the sunset over the mountains, it’s pretty spectacular!

Budva Old Town

A wonderful coastal city, Budva is one of the oldest cities in Montenegro. With a rich history and beautiful architecture, it is a real gem. Be sure to explore the Old Town, getting lost in the winding streets filled with bars, restaurants and shops. Then head to the beach for a spot of sunbathing, before enjoying a delicious meal at one of the restaurants serving up local dishes. For the best views head to the entrance to the Old City wall, you won’t regret it!

Blue Grotto

A national landmark of Montenegro, the Blue Grotto invites you to enjoy a light show as the grotto illuminates in a bright blue colour as the sun reflects off the water. The best time to visit is before noon where visitors can go for a swim or go scuba diving. Take a boat trip, sit back, relax and enjoy this wonderful phenomenon. One of the best attractions on the coast near Kotor, this is one not to be missed!
