The heated political atmosphere in Montenegro also hung over the decimated coastline and beach crown around Budva.
In Slovenska plaža, where, they say, there is only 10 percent of the usual number for this period of the season, it is filled with only a few deck chairs, mostly domestic tourists, because there are hardly any foreigners.
That is why stories about the election and its outcome can be heard in beach cafes, writes “Novosti”. However, no one speaks out loud about their strengths in the elections, and most say diplomatically that the only thing that matters is peace.
There is not a single car from Serbia in the large parking lot next to Slovenska plaža, and the caterers say they felt the absence of guests from our country, but also from Russia, Ukraine, Belarus, England, France, who were there for years. previous.
Large hotel complexes, such as Slovenska plaža, “Splendida”, “Avale” work to a certain extent, but private accommodation owners have been hit hard.
In an attempt to salvage what can be salvaged from the season, catering companies lowered prices. A set of hammocks with an umbrella costs a maximum of seven euros, but can also be negotiated for a lower price. Coffee on the beach costs 1.2 euros, as much as a bottle of water, draft beer is 1.3 euros, grapevines 1.7 euros, Coca-Cola 2.2 euros …
– What you see now is also crowded on the beach, because it is a weekend, so people come from Podgorica, Nikšić. Truth be told, we want to forget about this year as soon as possible. We have also cut prices in half, but we cannot earn or cover utilities. We also have a beach bar, which we don’t even open because there are no guests, Blagoje Radović, the owner of a beach cafe, told “Novosti”.
Nobody rides boats anymore
Captain Sveto Stanišić, who goes on boat tours, has a similar message:
– The journey per person is four euros and we barely sell 30 tickets, and our capacity is 90 people.
