The Budva Riviera, with its approximately twenty mile long coastline from Jaz to Buljarica, is one of the most popular holiday destinations not only in Montenegro but in Europe. Montenegro's largest and most beautiful beaches are found in a landscape of numerous bays between the limestone cliffs and protected by the Lovcen mountain chain from cold north winds. Nearly two miles of the Budva Riviera are fine beaches, of which Mogren, Becici and Petrovac are the most famous. Individual beach sections are awarded with the Blue Flag; an international award awarded for clean waters, high quality service standards and good environmental management at the beaches. Some of the beaches are open to the public, while the others are accessible only against fee.
