WHAT TO SEE


Naval Heritage Museum 
🟊 The Naval Heritage Museum is hidden out of the main village in Porto Montenegro, but it's well worth visiting. Porto Montenegro used to be called the Arsenal, one of the largest naval bases on the Adriatic, founded by the Austro-Hungarian Empire in 1889. The museum now houses over 300 exhibits of the area's naval history. There is even a restored Yugoslav submarine on site.


Islands in Tivat

Passing through the Adriatic Sea on the way to your next destination or planning your stay in one of the ports along the Adriatic coast?
We are well aware how important it is for your trip to have high-quality fuel at the most competitive prices.
Let our team help you refuel your boat safely with fuel and oil with no tax on your purchase.

With our partners we always fulfill our clients expectations in terms of the quality of provided fuel and service.
Montenegro and Albania offer you this service but with differences in terms of regulations and limits. Here are some important facts that can help you if you planning to visit Montenegro or other Mediterranean countries and to keep your tank always full in the most economical option so you cruise this wonderful area with ease.

Tax-free diesel in Montenegro


Did you know that tax-free fuel in Montenegro and Albania is 45% cheaper than retail diesel prices in these countries, and up to 60% less expensive than the regular retail price in the EU?
Along the Montenegrin coast, there are three fuel stations where you can supply your yacht with tax and duty-free diesel.
Tax and duty-free fuel are available to both private and commercial yachts with no minimum limit nor registration restrictions.
In Montenegro, as per government regulation, fuel prices change every 14 days (night between Monday and Tuesday) but for large duty-free refueling quantities (over 100000 liters) price can be adjusted depending on the situation.
In contact with our team, you can supply your yacht with tax-free fuel in the next Montenegro ports:

I. Porto Montenegro – Tivat


Duty-free fuel for no limit in yacht size or quantity.
Positioned at the end of Jetty 3, this specialized fuel dock through it’s system holds stock of up to 800,000 liters of tax and duty-free fuel which can be pumped at up to 1000 liters per minute. The dock is operational all year round (with variation in working time, summer time is from 08.00 until 20.00 and winter time is from 08.00 till 17.00, but everything can be arranged to suit clients needs depending on availability) and up to three yachts can refuel at the same time.
The fuel provided is high-quality Euro diesel (Ultra-Low Sulphur) and you do not have to preorder a specific amount, you can take any quantity that is under safety requirements depending on your tank capacity.

As this is a specialized place for refueling of yachts additional services like mooring operations, firefighters etc. are included in overall service expenses.
In the winter time short notice for reservation of refueling slot is often possible, but in the season period several days ahead is obligatory due to occupation and availability.

II. Port of Bar

The refueling station in Marina Bar is the smallest in it’s capacity, with tanks holding up to 30000 liters and size limit of 40 meters with a maximum draft up to 4.5 meters. The announcement is obligatory in both winter and summer season, with the exception in winter that it can be in one or two days and in summer is better to be more that three days prior to refueling.

Refit and repair center for mega yachts in Montenegro

The Government of Montenegro approved a contract for awarding a concession for the commercial use of the Shipyard Bijela with two prestigious companies in the maritime industry, local luxury marina operator Adriatic Marinas and Dutch defense, shipbuilding and engineering conglomerate Damen NV. The concession will refer to a period of 30 years and they plan to invest €20 million in the next three years. At the site of the former shipyard, these two companies will set up a new center intended for repair and service of mega and super yachts.
It is located in a fenced circle of the mentioned shipyard harbor whose surface area is about 108 thousand square meters, while the area under the buildings is about 25 thousand square meters.

As previously announced, a new yacht repair and service center will be able to repair yachts up to 120m in length. The center will have a large synchro lift, several travel lifts of greater capacity, and four modern refurbishment workshops, one of which will be completely closed, intended for painting the yacht.

By opening this repair center for mega and super yachts, Montenegro will complete the offer in the sphere of nautical tourism, so that the owners of the vessel, in addition to the existing amenities (berth for yachts up to 250m, tax-free diesel, 7% VAT on services provided by the marina, 0% charter tax), will have all that is necessary for their boat during the summer and winter season.

Za nevjerovatnu divlju ljepotu Crne Gore, bez oklijevanja se može reći da je raj za sve ljubitelje prirode. Ovaj biser jadranske obale predstavlja nepresušan izvor prirodnih čuda i ljepota. Iako je smještena na malom prostoru, bićete iznenađeni brojem prekrasnih pješčanih plaža, rijeka sa jedinstvenim kanjonima, visokim planinama i čistim jezerima koje Crna Gora nudi. Zanimljiva mjesta na jugu Crne Gore, koja Vas neće ostaviti ravnodušnim, su:
