Petrovac

Petrovačka plaža

A 600-metre crescent of reddish sand and fine shingle with a town promenade along its whole length and two chapel-topped islets offshore.

Vår dom

Petrovac is the family beach of the southern riviera: the sand really is red from the local rock, the water stays shallow and calm near the shore, and everything — cafés, gelato, restaurants, the bus terminus — sits on the promenade behind it. The Venetian Castello anchors the harbour end and the Katič and Sveta Nedjelja islets, now inside a protected marine area, give the bay its postcard. It is busy in July and August but it is a town, not a resort strip, and the better swimming at Lučice is a fifteen-minute walk over the headland.

Godt å vite før du bader

  • Boats run in and out of the harbour under the Castello — keep to the buoyed bathing zone at that end
  • The islets look close but are several hundred metres out across open water with boat traffic: do not swim to them
  • The bay opens to the south-west, so a jugo sends swell straight onto the beach and the red shingle shifts underfoot
  • Water-sports hire works from the beach in season — watch for the towing lane

Spørsmål

Is Petrovac beach sandy?
Reddish sand mixed with fine shingle — the Budva Tourist Organisation calls it a sand beach, our hub says sand and shingle. It is comfortable barefoot and the bottom near the shore is shallow.
Can I swim to the islets?
No. Katič and Sveta Nedjelja are several hundred metres offshore across open water used by boats. The protected marine area extends to the islets; see them from the Castello or on a boat trip from the harbour.
How do I get to Lučice and Buljarica from here?
On foot along the coastal path through the pines from the south-eastern end of the beach: Lučice is about 15 minutes, and the Roman Road walk continues over the next headland to Buljarica — around 8 km in all.
