Pinješ is the slope on the seaward side of Ulcinj, a residential quarter of villas and pines between the town centre and the coast road running south. It is a short, mostly downhill walk to Mala plaža and the harbour, and a short drive the other way to where Velika plaža begins — a useful position if you want both kinds of coast without committing to either. The streets are quiet, the air carries pine resin, and there is enough elevation for sea views over the rooftops.
Ulcinj rewards walking. From the harbour the lanes climb into the Old Town, two millennia of walls above the water, with viewpoints looking south along the whole sandy coastline to the Bojana and, on clear days, into Albania. Below, the evening promenade works as the town's living room, busy from dusk until late. Eating is straightforward and good — fresh fish by the harbour, grills and bakeries in town, mussels and eel from the river mouth in season. The season itself is long: this is the warmest, sunniest corner of Montenegro, and the sea holds its temperature into October, when the beaches empty out and the lagoons behind them fill with migrating flamingos and waders.
