Petrovac na Moru is the gentle end of the Budva Riviera. A small Venetian fortress guards one side of a curved bay, pine forests and olive groves descend the hills, and two islets, Katič and Sveta Nedjelja with its tiny chapel, sit just offshore. It is a place where families have returned year after year for generations.

Why Petrovac

Petrovac offers the beauty of the Riviera at a more human pace and with prices that remain reasonable. The town has kept its low-rise character, its promenade lined with cafés and its sense of community. Holiday rentals perform well in summer, particularly with families who prefer calm to nightlife.

New residential projects on the hills and in neighbouring Lučice and Buljarica offer modern apartments with views of the open sea. Buljarica, a long and still largely undeveloped bay next to Petrovac, is one of the most watched areas on the coast for future growth.

The season

The main season runs from June to September, with a pleasant shoulder season in May and October. Winters are quiet, which suits owners who use their homes in summer and let them to families during the peak months.

Where to buy

  • The centre and the promenade for convenience: apartments a few steps from the beach and the fortress.
  • The hills above town for views: newer buildings looking over the bay and the islets.
  • Lučice for a small sandy cove just around the headland.
  • Buljarica for vision: land and early projects in a bay with great potential.

Living here

Petrovac is walkable, safe and friendly. The beaches are sandy and sheltered, children can play freely on the promenade, and the forests behind the town invite walks among olive trees that are centuries old. Budva is twenty minutes away and Podgorica less than an hour.

Our view

Petrovac is our recommendation for buyers who want a holiday home that pays its way without the intensity of Budva. Buljarica deserves attention from long-term investors, and we follow its planning closely so that you can act at the right moment.
