Travel Reference
In-Depth Information
The monastery is well signposted from the large roundabout on the highway at
Meljine.
Španjola Fortress
Situated high above the town, this fortress was started and finished by the Turks but
named after the Spanish (yep, in 1538 they had a brief stint here as well). If the graffiti
and empty bottles are anything to go by, it's now regularly invaded by local teenagers.
There's a signpost on the main road, but you'll need to take an unmarked left turn not far
past Srbina 34.

Activities
Herceg Novi is arguably the country's best base for arranging active pursuits, largely due
to a network of expats running professional, customer-focused, environmentally aware
businesses.
