Your first stop of the day will be the charming Sveti Stefan islet, one of the most iconic and photographed locations in the Balkans. Once a fortified fishing village and pirate stronghold during medieval times, Sveti Stefan was later transformed into an exclusive luxury resort in the 20th century. Behind its stone walls lies a fascinating history, while its unique setting offers one of the most spectacular coastal views in Montenegro, making it the perfect spot for memorable photographs.
