Laid Back Budva

Budva is a popular coastal town in Montenegro. This place is well known for all the Mediterranean architecture, the beautiful beaches and vibrant nightlife. Budva is the oldest settlements on the Adriatic Sea coast – more than 3500 years old!! Over the years this area was reigned by Roman Empire, the Serbian empire, by the Venetians, the French, Austria-Hungary, Italians and Russians!!

Therefore, the people here seemed to have a bit of influence from these various countries. At one time, it was even part of Yugoslavia but today, Montenegro is independent and building itself to be recognised worldwide. Budva’s most famous beach is Mogren and it is nestled between high cliffs. I found out that the beach got its name after the Spanish sailor Morgini who got down here after a shipwreck.
