The medieval orthodox monastery complex situated next to the city, on a hill in the lush Mediterranean vegetation. It is composed of the Great Church, the Small Church and the Temple of Saint Sava, which was built, according to belief, by Saint Sava in the 13th century.
We walked to this Monastery and really enjoyed the history it represented and the care that has been given to it to keep it looking pristine. The entire region of Boka Bay is full of Monasteries high up in their hills and not easy to get to but Savina Monastery is easily accessible on foot. We recommend that you walk up the staircase on the right of the Monastery because about half way up you will find a clearing which gives you a fantastic aerial view of the Monastery and the western part of Boka Bay

Known also as the City Tower, it is one of the symbols of Herceg Novi. It is situated in the western part of the Old Town, and its main feature is the clock, which was replaced with an electric one in the mid-nineties of the last century.

Recommend a visit to this charming winery. Up on the hillside by Savina Monastery with beautiful views of the mountains overlooking Kotor Bay through to the gateway of the Adriatic Sea. Natasha was our guide. Informative of the locality, the wines & the history of the winery (from it being a hobby through to winning bronze awards at the world wine awards in London) It wasn’t just the wine, our friendly guide, the tour or the food though that made it such a lovely place to visit it was the whole experience. Exceptional views with delicious local food (snacks to complement the wine) a warm, welcoming guide and very good wines- light, refreshing and fruity. We started with rose-ganache, white - chardonnay, red- cabernet sauvignon -the merlot was still in the barrels & finally we had the rakija. It is a small winery and the tour itself is not long but it made it more personal hearing the family story behind the winery. We thoroughly enjoyed it and spent a good few hrs there relaxing, with it all undertaken at a very gentle pace. Really worth a visit, though to be aware you do need to make a private booking before you go (we did this through our hotel)

Nice old town with 3 fortresses inside in Boka Kotorska Bay. City is famous for its staircases connecting sea promenade with upper town. Nice old houses and atmosphere. Only thing missing are beaches, they are small and concrete.

Lots of restaurants, bars, cafes of all grades. Even the most expensive is very reasonable, by comparison with nearby Croatia, especially the Dubrovnik/Cavtat riviera. Great panoramic views of the Bay of Kotor you walk along. Boat trips available to various attractions. Trip up the bay to Kotor on a Pajo boat (owned by the family) really worthwhile, friendly with good commentary in various languages. In general, a laid back resort. If flying into Dubrovnik, ask your apartment owner about a transfer, to avoid delays at the border for buses/coaches (external EU frontier).

One of the most beautiful summer stages in Montenegro, it is a venue of music, film and theatre festivals, which made Herceg Novi widely known. It used to carry the name Bloody Tower, during the time when Novi was occupied by the Ottomans. One part of the tower - the tank - served as a prison.
Kanli Kula (Bloody Tower) was the second fortress we visited as part of our visit to Herceg Novi. Another fortress with a lot of history, it originates from the Turkish period (16th century). The climb upto the fortress is well worth it, the views of the Adriatic are just amazing. You need good footwear to get there. It has been reconstructed and turned into a summer stage and can accommodate over 1500 people.

Spanjola, or the Upper Fortress, gained its present look during the short rule of the Spanish in the mid-XVI century. Owing to its dominant position, it played a key strategic role in the defence of Boka for a long time. During the II World War, it served as a prison for a while.

A fortress with an educational video about the history of the building, an astonishing view on the promenade and on the bay...
