Other caves can only be entered with the permission of the Environmental Protection Agency, with the assistance of an experienced spelunking guide, and only for the purposes of expeditions.
Seek out the Blue Cave, a hidden cave on the sea!
Look for this incredible natural wonder in Luštica, close to Herceg Novi. Can you guess how it got its name? Precisely because its water is turquoise blue, sunlit by the sun, and all the colors of summer are refracted on the walls. Take a swim in the azure hidden gem for an unmatched, unique experience.

Đalovića cave - one of Europe's largest and most beautiful caves
Looking for Montenegro's largest and most beautiful cave? It is located near Bijelo Polje, in the Đalovića gorge, bursting with untouched nature and a unique ecosystem that has been designated as a natural monument due to its authenticity.
Is it enough that our invitation states that no cave ornament has been discovered so far? From canals filled with water, cave lakes navigable by smaller rubber boats, siphons, halls over 30 meters high, high stalactites and stalagmites, to crystal roses, and extremely rare cave ornaments!
Remember, only the most experienced spelunkers can conquer it.
An ice cave where winter never ends!
You will see everything in Montenegro, including the ice cave! At the top of Obla Glava on Durmitor, the water remains icy in the middle of summer. As a result, ice figures as tall as the average man are found here year-round. Impressive, isn't it?
You can descend to the cave using a rope or by descending feet-first. The ice-chained cave bottom will enchant you, and the hall's icy breath will keep you cool in the middle of July! From June to October is the best time to visit.
Jerina Cave and the Turin Archaeological Site
If you happen to be in the Petnjica area, don't forget to check out the gorge above Radmanci. Turin, in the Radman gorge, is one of Montenegro's most important archeological sites, with the famous walled cave known locally as "Jerina's Cave" or "Cave City."
The entrance to this amazing natural structure is lined with a powerful stone wall made of jagged and crushed stones. It is a significant site because arrowheads, bronze coins, iron tools, and fragments of pottery were found in it.
Turin is the most valuable and richest Late Bronze Age, or Neolithic, site. Archeologists discovered a 5,000-year-old female figure here. A Bronze Age house was discovered at a depth of only half a meter. These and other archeologically unearthed objects can be seen at the Polim Museum in Berane, where they are kept.
Novakovića cave
Some of the most beautiful parts of the Novaković Cave are the Hidden Chamber, the Enchanted City, Picasso, Ram, and the Dado Đurić Gallery! In the heart of the Vraneška valley, 28 kilometers from Bijelo Polje, you will find an impressive cave. Do you want to know how difficult the terrain is? The cave is easy to navigate, with the exception of the "Kula," meaning "Tower," which is harder to pass through - there you will be greeted by a narrow passage with a 3 to 4 m jump at the end.
