Opština Herceg Novi

Herceg Novi Municipality in Montenegro offers a compact coastal diving area along the Adriatic Sea, centered around the Boka Kotorska (Bay of Kotor) and nearby beaches. The region features sheltered, clear waters with mainly shallow reefs, rocky formations, and some wrecks accessible from Herceg Novi and the coast near Luštica. Typical conditions include mild Mediterranean salinity and modest visibility that can improve with seasonal changes. Dive sites are suitable for recreational divers and primarily focus on easy to intermediate dives, with opportunities to explore local marine life such as small fish, crabs, and invertebrates along rocky substrates and seagrass beds. Access is convenient from coastal towns, and shore dives or short boat trips serve most sites in this coastal administrative area.
