Zaton, a quiet seaside town in the Bay of Kotor, Montenegro

Located in the Bay of Kotor in southwestern Montenegro, Zaton is an Adriatic seaside town just a few kilometers from the historic city of Kotor. The town is famous for its two quiet bays "Big Zaton" and "Little Zaton", surrounded by mountains and blue water, preserving the original natural features and simple folk customs. Inside the town, the stone paths wind through the Venetian-style buildings in the old town and the orange trees and palms are a delightful contrast, giving the town a laid-back atmosphere. Zaton is the ideal place to experience "life as a journey": stroll along deserted beaches in the morning, explore the hidden fjords of the Bay of Kotor on a yacht in the afternoon, and enjoy fresh seafood and Montenegrin olive oil dishes in seaside restaurants in the evening. Away from the hustle and bustle, yet conveniently located, it is an understated jewel on Montenegro's Adriatic coast for travelers looking for a blend of tranquility and nature.
