History

How it came to be

The beach built Bečići's reputation as a Budva Riviera resort — famously winning a Grand Prix in Paris in 1935 as the most beautiful beach in Europe — and its roughly 1,950 m of sand still anchors the town's summer season.

What You’ll See

On a visit

Sunbeds and beach bars along the sand, watersports off the shore, and the promenade that runs south-east to Rafailovići at the far end of the bay, and north-west around the headland to Budva.

How to Visit

Directly in front of the resort hotels; a coastal path links it to Rafailovići and Budva.

Best Time

Morning for space; late afternoon for the light.

Good to Know

Yes — it is a long crescent of fine sand and gravel, a broad, gently shelving strand backed by resort hotels and a seafront promenade, with clear Adriatic water below the coastal mountains. It is one of Montenegro's best-known beaches.

Yes. The seafront promenade runs the length of the beach and continues north-west around the headland to Budva, about 2.5–3 km away — an easy, flat walk right along the water. Rafailovići lies in the opposite direction, at the south-east end of the bay, roughly 15 minutes on foot.

Bečići's roughly 1,950-metre stretch of sand won a Grand Prix in Paris in 1935 as the most beautiful beach in Europe. That reputation for golden sand, clear water and a mountain backdrop first put the resort on the map.
