Tivat Holidays

"A remote resort, featuring a luxury marina where Super Yachts are often spotted. "

A gorgeous harbour town that is quickly becoming a vital part of the Montenegrin Riviera, Tivat combines the stunning blue waters of the Adriatic, with a plethora of great things to do. Much of its rise in popularity is thanks to the development of Porto Montenegro, which has developed from the former historical naval facility and nowadays presents a state of the art holiday spot.

The town is centred around the recently developed marina, which now plays host to an array of boats, which has transformed it into one of the most popular destinations in the Adriatic. This coupled with the range of adventure sports on offer, such as zip-lining across the second deepest river canyon in the world, along with its gorgeous mountain scenery, makes it the perfect place for a coastal city-break.

History & Culture

Originally a small Illyrian town in ancient times, it fell under Roman dominion around 200 BC. Roman rule was kind to the town with the economy booming during the period. It fell under Serbian influence following the retreat of the Romans, a period when many of the churches in the town were built. By 1420 the area, like much of the Adriatic Coast, had come under Venice’s influence and the town owes much of its renaissance architecture to this period. Upon the fall of the Venetian Republic power was transferred to the powerful Austro-Hungarian empire, which lasted until the foundation of the new Yugoslavian state after the second world war.
