Podgorica Travel Guide
Montenegro
Podgorica is Montenegro’s capital and largest city, with a population of 136,473. It sits inland in central Montenegro, making it a practical base for exploring the country rather than a coastal resort in its own right.
Most travellers arrive through Podgorica Airport (TGD). The Adriatic coast is within reach, with Queen’s beach and Kraljičina both 35.4 kilometres away, plus Sveti Stefan private beach and Lučice Beach, each 36 kilometres from the city.
