Nothing here that Njivice does not also offer.

Njivice

Njivice is one long public beach, Kraljičina plaža, below one resort on a side road west of Igalo — rock, patches of sand and concrete platforms rather than pebble, a naturist section partitioned off at one end, and water the open sea flushes rather than the inner bay. It faces north-east, so the view is the whole Herceg Novi riviera under Orjen, and the summer boats to Dobreč, Žanjice, Mamula and the Blue Cave leave from this shore. Regulars are families with small children and older visitors after a quiet stay; there is a year-round bus to Herceg Novi and nothing at all after dark.

There is one resort, one beach bar and no restaurant choice or nightlife — the nearest is Igalo, 4 km away — and the entry is rock and concrete, not sand.

Savina

Savina is a promenade beach rather than a bay: 200 m of pebble and concrete platforms along the Šetalište 5 Danica where it passes below the monastery wood, with loungers at €10, a beach bar and restaurants within reach, and the view straight across the water to Luštica. Its point is the combination — a swim, then the climb through the pines to the three churches of Savina, or the other way round. Herceg Novi’s own swimmers use it; the boat crowds do not.

Much of the entry is off concrete edges rather than a sloping beach, and the promenade runs directly behind you — this is town swimming with a monastery above it, not a cove.
