When is the best time to visit Montenegro

May 24, 2024

Summer season: May - September

From May to September there is a beach season in Montenegro. At this time there is a lot of sun, tourists and summer entertainment, which creates a fun and carefree atmosphere. This is a great time for those who love active recreation and a rich cultural program. However, to get a complete picture of life in Montenegro, it is also worth visiting the country outside the tourist season.

Autumn-winter period: October - April

In autumn and winter you can see Montenegro “without embellishment” and “summer euphoria”. If you are planning a move, it is recommended to visit the country at this time. From October to April, Montenegro seems to fall asleep: there are fewer tourists, most summer entertainment stops operating, and the pace of life slows down. For example, in November, attractions such as the Lipa Cave and the village of Rijeka Crnojevic are closed.

Winter life and everyday life

During the cold season, you can observe how the locals cope with the most boring (although this is subjective) time of the year. This is an excellent opportunity to understand the life and mentality of Montenegrins, and also determine for yourself whether this rhythm of life suits you. You will be able to see the real Montenegro, and not a tourist showcase.

Price reduction

Interesting fact: since the end of October, prices for housing and food have been declining as the off-season begins. This allows you not only to save money, but also to get better acquainted with real life in Montenegro.

By visiting Montenegro at different times of the year, you will be able to form a complete and objective picture of life in this beautiful country and decide whether it is suitable for you to live permanently.
