Plaža Perazića Do, Shingle beach on the coast of Montenegro, near Petrovac
Plaža Perazića Do is a small shingle beach on the coast of Montenegro, near the town of Petrovac. The shore sits inside a narrow cove framed by tall sandstone cliffs, and the seabed drops quickly, making the water deep close to the shoreline.
The cove and the surrounding coast have long been tied to Reževići Monastery, founded in the 13th century and still standing on the plateau above. The beach itself remained largely off the map until the 20th century, when the growth of coastal tourism in Montenegro brought visitors to this stretch of shore.
The cove sits below Reževići Monastery, which is visible from the shore. Many visitors combine a day at the beach with a short walk up to the monastery, which holds two old churches with frescoes dating back several centuries.
The beach can be reached on foot from Petrovac along a coastal trail that passes through pine trees and carved rock tunnels, or by car along a narrow, steep road. Parking near the beach is limited, so arriving early in the day helps, and water shoes are a good idea given the rocky shore.
Looming directly above the beach is the shell of the unfinished Hotel AS, a large concrete frame with rusted cranes that has stood incomplete for decades. The interior is off limits due to safety risks, but the structure is visible from the shore and has become a backdrop that many visitors photograph.
