About Herceg Novi
Herceg Novi, Montenegro, is a small coastal town located at the entrance of Kotor Bay and at the foot of Mount Orjen. Many tourist chose to skip Herceg Novi in favour of heading to Kotor or Budva, but spare a thought for this charming town. Herceg Novi has a lot to offer visitors and it comes with the added bonus of having fewer tourists than other destinations in Montenegro.
Prior to the Yugoslav wars, Herceg Novi was actually a major tourist destination, prized for the health benefits of its natural spas. Today it is still possible to visit these natural mineral water spas or even indulge in Igaljsko Blato (healing sea mud) treatment. Just head four kilometres west of the city to Igalo -- getting there is easy; simply walk or take a taxi or a local bus.
Herceg Novi also boasts several gorgeous beaches. The best beaches in the Herceg Novi area are found in Igalo; beaches here have crystal blue water and long stretches of golden sand coast. Otherwise many boat tour companies offer travelers day trips to Luštica Peninsula, which is just opposite Herceg Novi. Beaches here are spectacular -- check out Mirište or Žanjic Beach.
One of Herceg Novi's greatest tourist attractions is undoubtedly its pretty Stari Grad (old town), which features a castle originally built in the fourteenth century by a Bosnian king Forte Mare. It's the centrepiece of the Stari Grad.
