We continue to explore the area.

Now we stopped by for a walk in Dobra Voda.

The weather is overcast, so the beach looks a bit depressing. Especially when combined with our sad dog. But still beautiful)

This is a fairly quiet place, but not as quiet as. There are people and machines. The preparation of apartments for the new season is in full swing. And the beach is full of stray dogs. Therefore, Basya was not let off the leash and therefore he is so sad in all the photographs.

So, the village of Dobra Voda is located about 10 km from Bar towards Ulcinj. Not far, but walking here is definitely not an option. Option 4 - bus, taxi or own car.

Dobra Voda on the map

The map clearly shows the location of the village and many good ones.

Pay attention to the location, because part of the village is located above the highway - and this is a fairly decent distance from the sea.


Beach

There are two beaches in the village of Dobra Voda: Veliki Pesak and Mali Pesak. Ironic, but they are both pebbly)

The water is clean, the entrance to the sea is good.

In the middle, the beaches are separated by huge stones (in the photo - on the left).

Bastian carefully examines the area.

Near the huge stones in the middle of the beach there are a lot of sea urchins.

The second half of the beach somehow did not impress at all.

Sea view towards Bar. It's amazing how high people live.

Embankment

The embankment in Good Water is small, but pretty. And there are not many establishments here, even in season. Therefore, the village is more suitable for a quiet, relaxing holiday (they say there are very beautiful sunsets here).

I really liked this part of Good Water, everything is so green.

And again a sad dog, who was not allowed to run and squeezed a burek.

Well, the last photo for today, the sea-pool)

There are also normal descents, I just really liked the way it looks.
