Dobra Voda is a long, sun-facing stretch of coast between Bar and Ulcinj, where the Adriatic road runs across a hillside of olive terraces and the settlements drop straight to the water. Being on the shore itself changes the day. You swim before breakfast off shingle and rock, gulls work the water all morning, and the evening light goes copper across towards the Albanian coast. This is one of the sunniest corners of the country, and the swimming season stretches noticeably longer at both ends than it does in the enclosed bays further north.
Inland it is olive country. Groves worked by the same families for generations climb the slope behind the coast road, and small producers press and sell oil directly through the autumn. The konobas along this shore cook what came out of the sea that morning — sea bass, squid, mussels — and people eat late and outdoors, watching boat lights below. Southward the road continues to Ulcinj, with its clifftop old town and the long sweep of Velika Plaža; northward lies Bar's port, its marina and the ruined hillside city of Stari Bar, with the ancient olive tree at Mirovica nearby. The neighbouring bays at Veliki Pijesak and Utjeha fill in the coast between.
