You might not know this, but Ulcinj is home to Montenegro’s most popular nudist resort, Paradise Island.

Although the resort is quite basic by today’s standards, it’s still a hugely popular place for naturists from all over Europe.

The huge area of natural beauty and beach that’s secluded from outsiders is truly unique and really is a paradise for lovers of the clothing-optional lifestyle. 

If you're interested in camping in a clothing-optional location, check out Camp Full Monte.

Starting at €33

Local’s Tip: Paradise Island was the scene of one of Yugoslavia’s most famous films, Lepota Poroka (The Beauty of Vice).

In the film an impoverished couple from one of Montenegro’s ultra-conservative, patriarchal villages finds work in Ulcinj. The husband gets a job at the salt pan and the wife gets a job as a cleaner at the nudist resort.

The film focuses on the clash of cultures and the fallout of the wife’s introduction to a more liberal lifestyle.

The actress who played the wife (Mira Furlan) went on to move to the USA and have major roles on Babylon 5 and Lost.
