Explore Bar from Port of Adria
Port of Adria's central location makes it an ideal base for exploring Bar's historic streets, beautiful beaches, and vibrant harbor. Visitors can easily combine cultural sightseeing, beach relaxation, and local culinary experiences all in one trip.
The city of olives, the maritime gateway of Montenegro, and a centuries-old hearth of coexistence regardless of faith or nationality — Bar represents a blend of modernity, tradition, and beauty.
It is significant not only as a dynamic economic center of Montenegro but also as a city that preserves a rich cultural and historical heritage. Some of the most important achievements of civilization in Montenegro originated in Bar: here, the remains of the oldest written monuments have been preserved; here, the most significant literary and historical work of the Montenegrin Middle Ages was created; and the city was home to the oldest religious institution in Montenegro — the Archdiocese of Bar.
In addition, Bar is home to one of the oldest olive trees in the world — the Old Olive Tree in Mirovica, over 2,000 years old. The pleasant Mediterranean climate attracts a large number of tourists every year. With an average of 270 sunny days annually, Bar is one of the sunniest cities on the Mediterranean.
Its 44 km of sea coast — more than 9 km of which are beaches — along with 67 km of Lake Skadar's shoreline and the mountain range separating these two great bodies of water, make Bar an ideal destination for tourists who wish to relax on beautiful beaches and enjoy unspoiled nature, as well as for those who want to explore numerous cultural and religious monuments or spend their vacation actively, engaging in various sports activities.
