Tivat (Montenegrin Cyrillic: Тиват, pronounced [tîv̞at]) is a coastal town in southwest Montenegro, located in the Bay of Kotor. It has a population of 14,111 (2011 census).
The town itself is hardly picturesque. It has most facilities. It is being upgraded by the company that owns Porto Montenegro. For example the company has installed new water and sewage for the village as part of its general works. With the number of super yachts in the marina, most marine needs are catered for.

Not difficult. Head into the Bay of Kotor. Tivat/Porto Montenegro is easy to see from a distance as they kept the huge crane from the naval dockyard and painted it with red and white stripes

Marinas & Yacht Clubs
Porto Montenegro is a Luxury yacht marina and adjecent waterfront development currently under construction in Tivat.
The construction site was a naval shipyard named Arsenal, which fell into disuse after the Yugoslav Wars and the decline of the SFR Yugoslav Navy. The attractive lot on which the shipyard is situated was put on public offering in 2006, and was bought by Canadian businessman Peter Munk.
Munk announced that he intends to build a a luxury yacht marina and a waterfront community, which would cater to needs of growing community of superyacht owners. The favourable position of Tivat in the secluded part of Bay of Kotor, together with the proximity of Tivat Airport, makes it favourable location for a marina.
The marina will have berths for 650 yachts, 150 of them super yachts, up to 150m long.
The planned waterfront community behind the main docks will feature a 150-room Four Seasons hotel, about 250 condo units, conference centre, a market square, an art gallery, a museum, a sports complex and 10,000 square metres of retail space, including a supermarket and a department store.
The project is scheduled to be complete in 2010, while some parts of the complex might not be complete until a year later.
Anchorages
There are some anchorages in the bay. A nice one is off the island that used to be owned by Club Med.
An alternative is to moor at the restaurant Vino Santo. Full details at www.vinosanto.me They have room for about 4 or 5 yachts, with laid lines, electricity and water. The food is stunning too.
