Get seduced by Montenegrin south

BEYOND THE BUSY BEACHES OF Petrovac, Montenegro’s southern Adriatic coast stretches down past the port of Bar and the former corsairs’ lair of Ulcinj, coming to a full stop at the tip of a great swathe of golden sand at the mouth of the River Bojana. This arc of sand, 12 kilometres long, is Montenegro’s longest beach, aptly named Velika plaža (‘big beach’) and is also the country’s top spot for kite surfing. Despite its popularity, however, there is rather more space to breathe here than on some of the sandy beaches further north, whether you’ve come to take to the air or for a dip.
