Choosing Montenegro as rest, many tourists and do not think about such an interesting and beautiful place as Herceg Novi. On the Russian market, the mass of proposals to relax exactly there, but often our citizens make a choice in favor of Budvian Riviera. Apparently they have their own considerations.
Herceg-Novi belongs to the Bolko-Kotor Riviera, in my opinion it is much picturesque and more beautiful than popular Budvan. To get here, you need to drive about 30 km. From the airport Tivat.
Herceg Novi is small, but very green resort with plenty of attractions. It can easily be called a medieval city, wounded in his borders lose the feeling in which year you are. Herceg Novi, like most places in Montenegro from the sea, is located up, just to climb, it is necessary to do the way through a plurality of steps. With a carriage of course it is not very convenient. In essence, Herceg-Novi is very harmoniously located on Mount Orien. In connection with each corner, a beautiful view of the sea opens.

Why it is worth come to rest in Herceg Novi.

Lovers of sandy beaches will have to go beyond the limits of Herceg Novi or by bus, or taking a car. But according to your own experience, I will say, plots with small beaches are very comfortable, pebbles are absolutely not acute, most of the tourists with children bathe precisely in these places without experiencing discomfort.
