Deeper Into Bečići
A small stone Catholic church built in 1858 on a hill above the promenade. Simple interior with a wooden altar and sea-facing porch.
🕐 Open for Mass Sunday 9am–10am; otherwise by chance
💡 Visit at sunset for views over the bay. The church is often locked, so try Mass times (Sunday 9am) or ask at the adjacent rectory.

Getting Around Bečići
Bus 207 or 208. Get off at 'Bečići Plaža' stop – the hotel is 100m back toward the beach. Buy a ticket from the driver (cash only, small notes). Buses are basic and often late.
This bus runs only June–September. Buy a ticket from the driver (exact change needed). For the return, catch it at the same stop near the hotel. In shoulder seasons, walk the 20-min coastal path instead – it’s flat and scenic.
Negotiate the fare before you get in. Official taxis at the rank charge around 30 EUR, but booking a local driver via an app like Red Taxi (Montenegro) can shave off 5-10 EUR.
Take the bus from Tivat Airport to Budva station (€2, 30 mins), then switch to Budva–Bečići line (€1, 20 mins). The stop for Eurostars is the Bečići roundabout – a 3-min walk. Cheapest option but slow.
Tivat is the closer airport for Budva Riviera stops. For a fixed price, use Airbnb Transfers or Red Taxi; drivers often hold a sign with your name. Avoid empty taxis near arrivals – they’ll try to push 50 EUR.
Official taxis have yellow licence plates. Agree the fare before you get in – expect €30-40. Uber-style apps like BeTaxi or RedTaxi work locally but charge €2-5 more.
