The Ada Bojana (Ada Buna) area of the Ulcinj coast is a popular destination with international travelers to Montenegrins, and perhaps most telling, among Montenegrins as well. This is due largely to the natural beauty of the area and the daily fresh fish catch served at Ada Boana restaurants. Ada Bojana, part of the Ulcinj area of Montenegro’s southern coast, is located at the mouth of the Bojana River, on the Adriatic Sea.

Some of the most scenic portions of Velika Plaza (Long Beach) are here in Ada Bojana, attracting a multitude of beach-goers on any given day.

Ada Bojana is also known for the quality of its seafood restaurants, serving up Ulcinj region seafood flavorings. The daily fish catch at the mouth of the Buna river make for some of the best seafood menus anywhere in the world.

The banks of river Buna are also of interest, which feature wooden huts with curious-looking fishing devices called Calimera – which allow fishing of the river only with nets.

Ada Bojana was created by a man-made accident, when the schooner Merito helmed by a Captain Naporeli, sank in the river near two small islets. Over time, sediments from the river settled around the sunken ship and the two islets, first forming a sandbar and ultimately creating Ada Bojana island as it is known today.

The Ada Bojana area is also famous for its naturalist resort of the same name.

Ada Bojana is an artificially created river island. In the 19th century, at his location two smaller islands where located between which a ship called Merito was sunk. Though the years, the wreck of this ship and the two islands nearby, gathered river sediment and created this beautiful island. Ada Bojana has a triangular shape. It is touched from one side by the Adriatic Sea and the other sides by the river Bojana. The beach facing the sea is sandy, 3km long and is a heaven for sailing. On the river banks of Ada Bojana there are many fish restaurants that catch the fish in the old time-honored methods.

Ca. 15 kilometers south from Ulcinj is a 13 kilometers long sandy beach which streaches till the mouth of the river Bojana , from where it continues 2.7 kilometers on Ada Bojana till the Montenegro-Albanian border.

Ada Bojana is popular among foreign tourists from Western Europe for its peace and unique atmosphere.

Ada Bojana, the splendid river island is dividing the delta of the ending river Buna into two forks and has a form of a triangular shape, and is also called triangle island. This beach exclusively reserved for nudists – also the biggest nddist colony in Montenegro.

It is close to 3.0 km long in the direction of the water flow, 1.8 km wide, and 3.4 m high. Two of the sides are washed by the fresh water of the river, and the third part of the triangle is a sandy beach and kisses the adriatic sea.

The right fork of Buna is bridged, connecting Ada with Long Beach (Vleika Plaza). On the banks of this part of the river Buna were built wooden huts with strange fishing divaces-Kalimera, which make it look like an exotic area of the far east Ada, far away from the world, is a real oasis of peace and relaxation. Its absolute silence is distributed only by the chipping of rare birds and the breaking of waves. Its thick and lush vegetation makes it a special micro ecological world, the home of rare plants and rare animals.

The most beautiful restaurants are on the banks of the river.
