Šušanj is the coastal neighbourhood immediately north of Bar's centre — near enough to walk into town for the market or the ferry terminal, far enough out to feel residential. Houses climb a gentle slope behind the shore, half-hidden by fig, pomegranate and vine, and the streets run down towards the sea rather than along it. Set a few hundred metres back from the water, you get the useful version of a beach address: quiet nights, no traffic noise from the promenade, and a short walk down whenever the heat makes swimming the only sensible plan.
The shoreline here is Žukotrlica, a broad shingle beach backed by pines that hold their shade through the hottest part of the afternoon, which is why local families have used it for generations. Walk or drive north and the coast opens into Sutomore, with the ruins of the Ratac monastery on the headland between the two. In the other direction, Bar itself gives you the practical things — the port with its overnight ferry to Bari, the railway that climbs inland towards Podgorica, a busy produce market — plus the hillside ruins of Stari Bar about four kilometres inland, best visited early before the stone starts throwing heat back at you.
