Ulcinj

Ulcinj is Montenegro's southernmost town and one of its sunniest. Its old town sits on a rocky headland with stone walls, narrow lanes and views over the sea, while to the south stretches Velika Plaža, one of the longest sandy beaches on the eastern Adriatic, ending at the river island of Ada Bojana.

Why Ulcinj

Ulcinj combines natural assets that are rare anywhere in the Mediterranean with prices that remain among the lowest on the coast. Long sandy beaches, shallow water ideal for families, olive groves in Valdanos and some of the best kitesurfing conditions in the region give the area a distinctive appeal.

Visitors arrive in large numbers in summer, many of them returning families, and the infrastructure is gradually catching up with the potential. For investors with a longer horizon, Ulcinj offers land and homes whose value has room to grow.

The season

The season runs from June to September, with warm, dry weather often lasting from May to October. The long summer and shallow beaches make the rental season dependable for family accommodation.

Where to buy

• The old town and Pristan for atmosphere: stone houses and apartments overlooking the harbour.
• Velika Plaža for space: villas and land behind the long sandy beach.
• Ada Bojana for something unique: riverside houses at the mouth of the Bojana.
• Valdanos and Kruče for nature: coves and olive groves north of the town.
