What Local Businesses Say
Businesses across Herceg Novi share their experience with the directory.
Nikola Vuković
Owner, family konoba in Bijela
“Most coastal visitors never make it past the Old Town, so being found by people heading east toward Bijela has made a real difference. Our tables fill up on weekends now.”
Tamara Radović
Host, stone cottage on the Luštica peninsula
“Guests choose us because they want quiet stone houses away from the main promenade. The directory reaches the right travellers — ones looking for Luštica, not resorts.”
Luka Dabović
Skipper, sea-kayak tours from Škver marina
“People book our kayak tours after reading specifically about Mamula, Žanjic and the Blue Grotto. They arrive knowing where they want to go, which makes the trips better for everyone.”
Jelena Šćepanović
Owner, small beach bar at Njivice
“Njivice gets none of Igalo's foot traffic, so we depend on visitors who plan the trip. The directory has been our most consistent source of those guests through summer.”
Petar Kaluđerović
Event coordinator, Forte Mare weddings
“Couples planning a wedding at Forte Mare want the bastion's layout and capacity in front of them before they enquire. The listing carries that detail without us needing a long first call.”
Dragana Ivanović
Manager, guesthouse below Savina Monastery
“Repeat guests start each trip with the directory and pass the link to friends. They tell us it reads as written by someone who actually walked the Savina path, not by an aggregator.”

Common Questions
Herceg Novi Directory treats the wider municipality as the editorial unit: Igalo four kilometres west, Topla and Meljine east of the Old Town, the Savina monastery slopes between, and the Luštica peninsula across the bay entrance. Boat operators running Mamula and Blue Cave routes sit alongside seafront venues.
The Mimosa Festival runs through February, peaking on the last weekend with parades, concerts and a long Sunday seafront lunch. Hotels along Pet Danica fill from Friday to Sunday afternoon. It's the only major event between the autumn ferry slowdown and the May cruise season, so book accommodation a month ahead.
Dubrovnik airport sits 25 kilometres north of the border. Private transfers take about 75 minutes including the crossing, with summer queues adding 30 to 45 minutes on weekends. Fixed-price transfers from €45. The Dubrovnik–Herceg Novi public bus runs seven times daily in summer for around €13.
Both sit off the Luštica peninsula and are reached only by boat. Speedboat tours leave Herceg Novi marina May to October, with the standard route covering Mamula, the Blue Cave, the Žanjic and Mirište coves and a swim stop. Shared tours from €25; private charters from €150.
Herceg Novi has fewer cruise calls, no UNESCO crowds, and a longer swim season than Kotor: bay water climbs from 19°C in May to 26°C in August and stays warm into October. Old Town footfall is steady but never overwhelming. Igalo offers spa treatments and a flatter promenade for older visitors.
Yes. The Institute Dr Simo Milošević accepts day passes year-round, with single mud or seawater sessions from €25 and half-day packages from €70. Hotels along Pet Danica also sell in-house spa packages for non-residents in shoulder months. Book a few days ahead in July and August.
