About the city

Tivat has long been tied to the sea through shipbuilding, seafaring and military tradition. In recent years, the city has undergone a significant transformation, but it has not lost its connection with the space in which it is located. Its coastline today gathers sailboats, yachts in the modern marina of Porto Montenegro, walkers and locals in the same place. Unlike cities with pronounced old centers, Tivat builds its identity through open space, landscaped waterfronts and everyday life by the sea. The proximity of the island, smaller settlements and other parts of the bay makes it a good starting point for exploring Boka. The city is developed enough to provide modern amenities, but also quiet enough to retain the feel of a seaside resort. It is this balance that represents its greatest value.

Tivat: Guide for a family trip through the city of the sea, parks and sailboats

Located in the heart of the Bay of Kotor, surrounded by a calm sea, green slopes and Mediterranean gardens, Tivat is a city that combines elegance, natural beauty and a relaxed lifestyle in a special way. Once a small coastal town known for its sailors and shipbuilders, today it is one of the most modern and well-organized destinations on the Adriatic, but despite this, it has preserved the warmth and charm of a Mediterranean town. Tivat is a place where the day begins with the smell of the sea and pine trees, continues with exploring hidden coves, strolling through luxurious parks or watching luxurious sailing ships, and ends with the sunset that illuminates the entire bay with golden hues. Its peaceful atmosphere, landscaped promenades and a large number of facilities for children make it an ideal choice for a family vacation. Unlike more busy coastal cities, Tivat offers a feeling of lightness and carefreeness. Everything is close - beaches, parks, restaurants, playgrounds and cultural attractions - so families can enjoy every moment spent together without rushing.
