Stoliv is a small, secluded village on the western shore of the Bay of Kotor, divided into Upper Stoliv on the hillside and Lower Stoliv at the water's edge. The village is surrounded by ancient olive groves, some with trees estimated to be over a thousand years old, and dense Mediterranean vegetation that fills the air with the scent of rosemary and wild herbs. Lower Stoliv offers a quiet waterfront with stone houses, a small church, and swimming spots with exceptionally clear water. Upper Stoliv, reached by a steep footpath through the olive groves, rewards the climb with panoramic views over the bay and the peaks beyond. Nestled between Prcanj and Lastva, Stoliv appeals to visitors who crave solitude, natural beauty, and an intimate connection with traditional Montenegrin coastal life far from any tourist infrastructure.
