Petrovac na Moru
A quiet seaside town 17 km south of Budva, with a red-sand beach framed by pine forest and a small Venetian fort; ideal for escaping Budva's bustle.
Petrovac is a small town at the southern end of the Budva Riviera. Its crescent-shaped bay is about 600 m long, its gravel is pale red, and behind it lie pine forests and a seaside promenade. On the headland at the south side of the bay stands a small fortress (Kaštel) built by the Venetians in the 16th century, now an open-air bar. One of the two small islands offshore has a small chapel. Further south is the quieter Lučice Beach, about 10 minutes along the path. Town restaurants focus on grilled fish and seafood pasta, and the atmosphere suits families better than Budva does. Getting there: take a bus from Budva's long-distance bus station, about 25 minutes, with frequent departures.
