About this beach
Grota Beach Bar & Restaurant is a well-regarded waterfront venue in Orahovac village, on the eastern shore of the Bay of Kotor roughly 7 km from Kotor's Old Town. Set directly at the water's edge against the rugged shoreline, it combines casual beach bar relaxation with a full restaurant menu and direct swimming access.
Guests can settle onto sunbeds, cool off in the calm bay water, and order food and drinks with sweeping mountain and water views all around. The atmosphere is lively but not overwhelming — a good balance of service and scenery. With nearly 480 reviews at 4.4 stars, it consistently ranks among the most praised spots in the bay.
Grota suits couples and small groups who want a full beach day with proper meals and drinks service, rather than a purely self-catered experience.
Good to know
A car or taxi is needed from Kotor. The bar is popular on summer evenings as a dinner destination — booking ahead for meals is advisable. Arriving by water taxi from Kotor adds a scenic touch. Lunchtime is quieter if you mainly want to swim.
