5 Destinations n Mediterranean Coast You Should Visit
Kos, Greece
If you’re planning a Greek vacation, then you must visit Kos. Are you looking for a slightly more active vacation? In Kos, you can go windsurfing on the beach of Mastichari.

One of the city’s main attractions is the Asklepieion, a former medical centre dedicated to the Greek god of health.
Montenegrin Coast
Montenegro represents the perfect amalgamation of gorgeous mountain scenery and stunning beachside. The Bay of Kotor, for instance, will be the perfect Mediterranean destination for lovers of mountains and sea.

Climb the fortified walls around Kotor to witness spectacular views of both the town and the bay. Stroll the streets to explore churches and a cathedral. If you’d rather explore Montenegro on water, getting luxury long term rentals in the Tivat area of Montenegro will be the perfect way to start your sailing experience and make the most of your Montenegrin vacation. Visit Kotor, Perast, Igalo, and many other seaside cities that will leave you in awe of its beauty.
