Why visit

Choose Petrovac Promenade and Old Quarter because it adds curved town beach, evening promenade and views of offshore islets to a Petrovac itinerary. It is most valuable when the day is arranged around nearby stops rather than treated as an isolated detour.

What you will see

  • Curved town beach.
  • Evening promenade.
  • Views of offshore islets.

History

Petrovac developed around a fortified coastal settlement and became a popular resort while remaining smaller than Budva.

Visitor tips

  1. 1

    Arrive early or stay into the evening to experience the place before and after the busiest excursion period.

  2. 2

    Combine this stop with other places around Petrovac rather than adding unnecessary cross-country driving on the same day.

  3. 3

    Keep some cash available, protect valuables, and use only clearly authorised parking, guides, boats or activity providers.
