Stari Bar: a walk among ruins

A different coastal rhythm: historic walls, old-town details and lunch after a walk.

This direction needs no packed schedule: make Stari Bar the day's main destination. Explore slowly, noticing individual walls, openings and small details. Leave time for lunch afterwards so the impressions are not immediately replaced by another drive.

What to see

Stari Bar is a historic town with ruins and restored buildings, including palaces, churches, an aqueduct and Turkish baths. It is separate from the modern coastal town, so choose Stari Bar specifically in your navigation.

Getting there by car

From Budva, route to Stari Bar and choose a parking point beforehand. Explore the historic area on foot. If you want a stop along the way, add one suitable break rather than the entire southern coast in a day.

A suggested plan

  1. Choose Stari Bar as the precise destination.

  2. Explore the historic site at your own pace.

  3. Leave time for lunch and the drive back.
