If you've got kids in tow, Bečići quietly stacks up as one of the easier family beach bases on the Budva Riviera — and its water attractions are a big reason why. Between the pools-and-slides complex at Hotel Mediteran, the inflatable aqua-park floating just off the sand, and the watersports strung along the beach, a hot afternoon here more or less plans itself. Here's how the water fun works, what's confirmed and what to check locally in 2026. For the bigger picture, see our Bečići for families guide.
At a glance
| Detail | |
|---|---|
| Aqua Park Mediteran | At Hotel Mediteran, Bečići — 7 pools, 10 slides, a lazy river |
| Size | ~7,500 m² total, ~1,300 m² of water |
| Season | Summer-only — opens around 1 July per the resort |
| Prices & hours | Non-guests ~€10 full day / €7 half (free for hotel guests); open daily roughly 11:00–19:00; confirm locally |

In short: the headline attraction is the Aqua Park at Hotel Mediteran — a proper slides-and-pools complex — but Bečići also has a floating inflatable aqua-park in the sea and plenty of watersports, so families have water options beyond the beach itself. Confirm this season's prices and opening hours directly, as published figures differ.
Aqua Park Mediteran: what's there
The resort's own Aqua Park Mediteran sits within Hotel Mediteran at the heart of Bečići. By the resort's own account it covers roughly 7,500 m², of which about 1,300 m² is water, and packs in seven swimming pools and ten slides alongside a lazy river, jacuzzis, cascading and children's pools, sunbathing terraces and a café-bar. Some of the pools are shaped and depth-adapted specifically for young children, which is what makes it work as a family day out rather than a thrill-seeker's park. In practice, that mix is the draw: parents can settle on a lounger within sight of a shallow play pool while older kids work through the slides, so a single ticket keeps a whole family occupied for hours without anyone getting bored or straying far.
It's an easy addition to a beach holiday: you get the variety of a water park — slides for older kids, shallow play pools for little ones, loungers for the grown-ups — without leaving the resort strip. Because it belongs to the hotel, it's a natural fit if you're already staying nearby, but it's also open to visitors.
Prices and opening hours — check before you go
This is the part to pin down locally, because the numbers genuinely differ between sources. The park's own AquaPark page says it opens for the season around 1 July, and recent 2026 listings put non-guest entry at roughly €10 for a full day (about €7 for a half-day), free for Hotel Mediteran guests — but the official Hotel Mediteran site itself publishes no prices, and older third-party pages quote more (some €15, others closer to €25 for a full-day adult pass), with daily hours varying too. Current listings show it open daily from around 11:00 to early evening (roughly 19:00–19:30), and note that towel hire (€2) and a locker (€3) cost extra. In other words, €10/€7 is the current ballpark, but treat any figure as provisional.
Rather than repeat a figure that may be wrong by the time you arrive, treat the park as "open in summer, prices on the day." Before you plan around it:
- Confirm the current season's opening dates and daily hours — it's a summer-only operation.
- Check adult and child ticket prices and whether hotel guests enter free or discounted.
- Ask about height/age rules for the bigger slides if you've got smaller children.
The safest move is to check with Hotel Mediteran directly (or a current, dated listing) close to your visit. Don't rely on the numbers floating around older travel pages.
Beyond the park: water fun on Bečići Beach
Even without the aqua park, Bečići's beach itself is a water playground. Two things stand out for families:
- The offshore inflatable aqua-park. Off the sand there's a floating inflatable water park — the bouncy runs, slides and climbing obstacles anchored just offshore that kids can swim out to. There's also a smaller children's inflatable park closer in. It's a seasonal, weather-dependent set-up, typically pay-per-session, so check the price and any age or swimming-ability rules with the operator on the beach.
- Watersports. Along the ~2 km strand you'll find the usual Riviera line-up — jet skis, banana-boat and ringo rides, pedalos and catamarans, parasailing and more. Great for older kids and teens; prices are set by the beach operators and paid on the spot.
Add in the hotel pools up and down the strip and you rarely have to go far for a cooling-off option. For the beach in full, see our best beaches on the Budva Riviera guide, and the wider things to do list.
Planning a family water day in Bečići
| Option | What it suits | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Aqua Park Mediteran | Mixed-age families wanting slides + shallow pools | Summer only; confirm prices/hours locally |
| Offshore inflatable aqua-park | Confident-swimmer kids and teens | Seasonal, weather-dependent, pay-per-session |
| Beach watersports | Older kids and teens after a thrill | Priced by beach operators, paid on the spot |
| Hotel pools | Toddlers and downtime | Handiest if you're staying on the strip |
A relaxed rhythm works best: beach and inflatables in the morning, a shaded lunch, then the aqua park when the sun is at its fiercest and the pools are the obvious place to be. Bring water shoes, plenty of sun cover and cash for the pay-on-the-day activities.
Getting there and around
Bečići is easy to reach and easy to get around with children. The resort sits about 3 km south of Budva Old Town along a flat seafront promenade, so if you're staying in Budva you can walk, take a short local bus or grab a taxi. The nearest airport is Tivat (TIV), roughly 23 km away — around a 30–40 minute transfer — while Podgorica (TGD) is farther inland at about 65 km. Car hire on the Riviera starts from around €25 a day, handy if you want to pair a water day with a coastal drive.
Once you're here, most of the family water options — the beach, the offshore inflatables, the watersports and the Aqua Park Mediteran — are within a short walk of one another along the resort strip, so you rarely need transport during the day. Buggies and beach carts roll along the promenade easily enough, and the konobas and cafés for lunch or an ice-cream break are never far.
Other family outings from Bečići
A water park keeps everyone happy on the hottest afternoons, but Bečići is also a good springboard for gentler family sightseeing when you want a change from the pools:
- Budva Old Town — the walled Stari Grad is a 3 km promenade stroll (or short bus) away, with lanes, ramparts and the inexpensive Citadela to explore.
- Sveti Stefan — the famous fortified islet is about 5 km south, an easy photo stop and beach visit.
- Rafailovići — the little seafood village at the north end of the beach, roughly 1 km along the promenade, good for a relaxed harbourside dinner.
- Boat trips — day boats along the coast and into the Bay of Kotor run in summer from Budva's harbour.
