Directly above the marina is about as central as Herceg Novi gets. The harbour below is working and social at once — small fishing boats, skippers touting trips to the bay's beaches and caves, a row of cafés where the town takes its morning coffee — and barely a hundred metres of promenade separates it from the stone gates of the old core. Through them the streets turn into stairs, running up past Belavista square with its domed Orthodox church, the seventeenth-century Sahat Kula clock tower, and the Kanli Kula fortress, whose amphitheatre hosts concerts, film screenings and theatre through the summer.
The trade-off for that position is the sea twenty metres away in one direction and the town's entire evening life in the other. Swimming is from platforms and small pebble beaches rather than sand; the promenade continues past them both ways, west towards Topla and Igalo, east towards Savina and its monastery. Out of season the same address turns remarkably quiet, and the mild winters here — mimosa in bloom by February, cafés still open on the waterfront — make it a workable base long after the beach crowd has gone.
