About Budva for Solo Travelers
Montenegro's Riviera capital where a medieval walled old town sits behind Europe's most beautiful beach scenes β solo travelers find Budva the Adriatic's most socially vibrant coastal town.
Solo Travel TipsΒ· Solo Friendly
Budva has a beautiful walled old town and the most developed beach and nightlife scene on the Montenegrin coast β it's more commercial than Kotor but the Old Town itself is lovely solo. The beaches (Sveti Stefan island views, Jaz beach) are excellent. Solo travelers in summer will have no trouble meeting people through the beach and bar scene. Off-season it's very quiet but very beautiful.

Avala Resort Budva
Accommodation
Budva's most popular resort hotel β set on a private beach between the old town and the Mogren cliffs with indoor and outdoor pools, a sea-view restaurant, and the best location on the Budva Riviera. The beach access is superb; the pool terrace at sunset is where the entire resort gathers.

Montenegro's finest beach β a 1.8km arc of sand and shingle 3km from Budva with turquoise water, mountain views, and enough scale to feel uncrowded even in peak summer. The setting is spectacular; the rolling hills behind the beach are used for major concerts (Rolling Stones, Madonna have both played here).
πJaz Beach, Budva, Montenegro

Mogren Beach
Nature
Two connected crescent beaches below the old town fortifications β some of the clearest Adriatic water in Montenegro, with dramatic cliff scenery, a sea-arch connecting the two coves, and enough space to find a relatively quiet spot even in summer.

Stari Grad Budva (Old Town)
Culture
Budva's extraordinary medieval old town β a 9th-century Venetian city on a rocky peninsula with narrow alleys, stone churches, 5th-century fortress walls, and the most animated nightlife scene in Montenegro. The old town is tiny enough to walk in 20 minutes but rich enough to spend an entire evening exploring.

Top Hill Club Budva
Nightlife
The most spectacular open-air club in the Balkans β a hilltop venue above Budva with panoramic Adriatic views, international DJ bookings, and a crowd of Eastern European summer revelers that makes Ibiza look restrained.
