Adriatic port city on Montenegro's southern coast — the country's main commercial port and ferry link to Bari, Italy. The Old Bar ruins (4km inland) and the seafront promenade anchor the walkable cores; Sutomore and Šušanj are the residential beach strips north of town. Montenegro has no formal DNV; visa-free 90/180 for most western passports, and white visa or temporary residence for longer stays. Schengen-aspiring (not yet member). Cheaper and quieter than Kotor or Budva — among the lowest-cost EU-adjacent coastal bases.
