Budva in January

January is Budva at its emptiest. Days are often crisp and clear between rain spells, the Old Town is beautifully deserted, and hotel prices bottom out. Beach infrastructure is packed away and many seasonal restaurants close, but the coast walks and day trips work fine between showers.

Can you swim?

Realistically no; the sea is cold. The sea averages 15.1°C this month; check the live sea temperature for what it is doing today.

What to do in January

Walk the empty Old Town and coastal path, day-trip to Kotor and Cetinje without a single crowd.
