More About Ulqini Beaches
The Ulcinj Coastline - Ulcinj's coastline is 32.7 kilometers long, stretching from Stari Ulcinj Cape southward to where the mouth of the Bojana river empties into the Adriatic Sea. There are eighteen inlets in the part of the coastline that consists of coastal cliffs at the sea's edge, as well as the peninsulas Marjan and Mandra, Valdanos Beach, and two sandy beaches including the great Velika Plaza.
Velika Plaza - Ulcinj's Velika Plaza, also known as Long Beach, is one of Montenegro's great natural assets - truly a place of beauty. Some locals like to call the 13-kilometer Velika Plaza the "Copacabana of Ulcinj". It spreads out from Djerane Cape to Ada Bojana. The beach is covered with the finest sand (the diameter of a grain is 0.1-5mm) with such a fine quality that it is reputed to have medicinal features. It is rich with minerals, good for those suffering from rheumatism and other illnesses. This beach is distinctive for a long shallow belt of sea water.
Small Beach - Small beach is the 360-meter city beach adjacent to Old Town Ulqin and Ulcinj's city center area. The beach is considered highly suitable for children since the sand is fine and comforting, and the sea here has a shallow bottom which goes some distance into the sea. At the very end of this city beach, beneath the Old Town castle walls, is a small Ulcinj port (360 m) with a well managed pier. Small Beach is also quite popular due to the numerous restaurants, beer bars, cafes, and shops situated adjacent to the strand walkway along the beach.
Ladies Beach - So-called "Ladies Beach" is situated along Ulcinj's coastal pine forest, just south of Hotel Mediteran Resort. Ladies Beach is part of a succession of small natural beaches and quiet covers that dot the coastline north of Velika Plaza.
