SAILING IN MONTENEGRO

Montenegro is located on the east coast of the Adriatic Sea. It is a well-known tourist destination that is especially appealing to people who love sailing and other sea sports. A 295 km long coastline, with 72 km of beaches, is enriched with many old towns and beautiful natural bays. Sunny and windy days, crystal clear sea and Mediterranean ambient creates a paradise for anyone who loves life at the seaside.

With regard to the long tradition, sailing is very popular sport in Montenegro. Sailing Federation of Montenegro, in cooperation with 9 sailing clubs along the coast, organizes large number of regattas for sport and cruising sailboats. Most visited regatta is "Fasinada Cup" in Perast organized by Y.C."Porto Montenegro" and Y.C."Lahor" Kotor. 

In the south of the country there is 13 km long "Long Beach". This fascinating place with rich flora and fauna at the mouth of Bojana River is perfect for kite surfing.

From Bar to Ulcinj, a town in the south of Montenegro where "Long Beach" is located, there are 31 wonderful sea caves. This part of the coast is very interesting for sailing because of a great number of windy days throughout the year. The most common wind in the summertime is Maestral, a moderately strong north-west wind.

Bar is also a town in the southern part of the coast. It has a big Marina with a large number of berths with full service for motor yachts and sailboats. There are also a lot of sandy beaches and bays such as "Queen's Beach" - a very attractive place for anchoring and spending your day surrounded by beautiful nature.

In the middle of the Montenegrin coast there is a town called Budva. With its perfectly preserved old town, long sandy beaches, lots of bars and clubs and also a very big Marina, it is a center of tourism in Montenegro. This aquatorium is suitable for sailing because of the open sea. Just a few miles to the south you can visit the most beautiful peninsula in Montenegro - a hotel town "Sveti Stefan".

Sveti Stefan

Bay of Boka is located in the northern part of the coast. The so-called "bride" of the Adriatic, is a heavenly place with 3 towns (Kotor, Tivat and Herceg Novi), lot of small villages and two islands in the middle of the bay.
