Hotels in Neum – Coast, Beaches and Culture

Neum is located on Bosnia and Herzegovina’s only stretch of coastline. Neum Bay is described as calm and crystal-clear. Neum has more than 20 kilometres of coastline with a variety of beaches. Four central city beaches are located directly along the waterfront promenade; the beaches mentioned are pebble beaches with a gently sloping entrance into the sea.

Water and Trails

Tiha Luka Bay is suitable for swimming. Recreational diving is available in Neum and supported by members of the local diving club. The Ćiro Trail is a cycle path from Mostar to Dubrovnik. The Camino Dubrovnik is approximately 145 kilometres long and divided into seven sections. The route information therefore refers both to the connection between two cities and to an approximately measured route with a clear stage structure.

Culture and History

The cultural points of interest range from events and religious sites to archaeology and historic sites. The Neum Summer Festival is an annual series of cultural and entertainment events held in Neum. In old Neum, the Church of Saint Anthony is regularly used for Masses and religious ceremonies, especially in summer. The archaeological exhibition at the Museum of Neum includes a helmet belonging to an Illyrian warrior, found in a grave discovered during construction work on the modern Neum–Stolac road. In the village of Gradac, the Catholic Church of Saint Anne was built before 1619. It is considered one of the oldest surviving religious buildings in this part of Herzegovina.

In the surrounding area of Neum, the old town of Hutovo is considered an important cultural and historical landmark. In Neum’s hinterland, there are numerous medieval stećak necropolises; some of them are listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites. Thus, the historical references range from a village and an old town to archaeological sites and medieval necropolises.
