It is able to recall many epochs, as illustrated by its archaeological finds, palaces of noblemen, old churches, maritime heritage and legends that are still believed by locals. Tivat is also proud of its centuries-old tradition of music, dance and culinary delights. There is no shortage of fun here, but also no lack of peace and quiet. The only audible sounds in the nature reserve are the chirping of birds. Serenity is provided by islets, wild beaches and hiking trails that lead to magnificent vantage points. A love of greenery can be seen at every turn and, apart from having its own botanical garden, this city also has its own flower, the magnolia, the scent of which spreads through the city’s streets. Saline Best testifying to Tivat’s wealth is the fact that its territory has the most beautiful coastline, mountain rises and nature reserve! It’s no surprise that over 100 species of bird found peace for themselves right here. A genuine attraction is provided by the flamingos, whose pink feathers beautify the Tivat Saline salt flats. If you add to this its many hidden coves, islands and the largest botanical garden in the Adriatic, it isn’t difficult to conclude why Tivat is an excellent choice.

That’s why Tivat today boasts the largest botanical garden in the southern Adriatic region, located at the very heart of the city. And that tradition lives on, such that every citizen can gift a sapling that will be planted in the park to mark the occasion of a wedding, birth or any important life event. The trees that you can see within the scope of this monument of nature include Australian conifers, eucalyptus, Aleppo pines, cedars etc. Some of the trees here are 130 years old and over 25 metres tall.
