Open coast

Sveti Stefan & the Budva Riviera

South of Boka Bay the coast opens up: Budva's beaches and nightlife, the island of Sveti Nikola offshore, and the fortified islet of Sveti Stefan connected to the mainland by a narrow causeway.

Sveti Stefan

The islet is a private resort, so landing is not possible — boats cruise past and swim nearby, which is where the classic photograph comes from.

Conditions

This is open coast rather than sheltered bay. Afternoon wind builds more often than inside the Boka, so on breezy days a larger hull or a bay-based itinerary is the better choice.
