01Parking for the waterfront and marina
For the marina, there is a public parking lot beside the Port Authority on Marsala Tita Street. For the waterfront and the park by King Nikola Palace, there are also parking lots on Jovana Tomasevica Street, behind Gradska Kafana and beside Mornar.
Port Authority parking, Marsala Tita Street
The Port Authority lot and the listed lots on Jovana Tomasevica Street belong to Zone I in the published list. The marked street spaces on Popa Dukljanina, between Marsala Tita and Jovana Tomasevica, are also in that zone.
The published Zone I rate is €0.50 per hour or part of an hour. The public-zone rate does not represent the price of any private parking inside the marina.
02Parking for the center and Green Market
For shopping at the Green Market, there are parking areas between the market and Trgovacka Street, as well as behind the market towards the boulevard. Street spaces on Trgovacka cover the section from Makedonska to Branimira Baje Bajkovica Street.
Green Market parking, Trgovacka Street
These parking areas belong to Zone II. For the municipal building or Basic Court, there are parking lots behind those buildings on Rista Lekica Street in the same zone. Parking for Vladimir and Kosara Square on Jovana Stojanovica Street belongs to Zone I, so the zones also differ within the center.
The published rate is €0.40 in Zone II and €0.50 in Zone I per hour or part of an hour. For four hours billed in this way, the price list would give €1.60 by the market or €2.00 at the lot by the square. This is a calculation based on the published rates, not confirmation that charges are currently collected.
03Parking around Topolica Sports Center
For the sports hall, use the parking areas around Topolica Sports Center on Scepana Malog Street and the surrounding streets. Parking beside the hall is a separate location from the lot in front of the Madzarica sports grounds on Jovana Tomasevica.
Topolica Sports Center parking, Scepana Malog Street and surrounding parking areas
The parking areas around Topolica Sports Center and the lot in front of Madzarica are listed in Zone I. For an event in the hall, the first choice is the area around the hall. Parking by Madzarica serves a different part of the sports complex.
The published Zone I rate is €0.50 per hour or part of an hour.
04Parking for Old Bar
To park below the walls of Old Bar, there is a parking area beside the bazaar and a lot by the town gate. The parking area is on the southern approach to the bazaar, while the gate lot is closer to the entrance to the old town itself.
Parking area, Old Bar bazaar, Old Bar
Parking by the Old Town Gate, Old Bar
Both lots belong to Zone I. The official list for Old Bar also includes parking by the market and by the sports grounds. These are separate parking options when the parking area or gate lot has no spaces.
The published Zone I rate is €0.50 per hour or part of an hour. A free-parking label on an individual Maps profile does not confirm the current price for the whole parking area in Old Bar.
05Parking at Zukotrlica in Susanj
For Zukotrlica beach, public parking is between the promenade and the main road in Susanj. The location on the seaward side is separate from parking for accommodation and other properties across the main road.
Zukotrlica parking, between the promenade and main road in Susanj
This lot belongs to Zone I. Parking provided by accommodation for its guests has separate access conditions and is not a public alternative when the beach lot is full.
The published Zone I rate is €0.50 per hour or part of an hour. The name "Slobodni Parking" on the Maps profile helps identify the location and does not confirm that parking is free.
Parking charges, penalty notices and towing
The legal fine for parking in a prohibited place or obstructing traffic ranges from €100 to €300. A penalty notice imposes the minimum amount in that range. It is separate from a charge for unpaid zone parking.
Paying a penalty notice
If you accept responsibility, the regular procedure allows you to pay half the fine within eight days of accepting the notice. A €100 penalty would therefore cost €50.
An exception applies to a person without permanent or temporary residence in Montenegro, or someone leaving the country, when the competent authority has reasonable grounds to suspect that they will evade enforcement. In that case, two-thirds of the fine must be paid without delay. Use the amount and payment instructions on your own notice.
If your car is missing, check with Komunalne djelatnosti Bar whether it was towed. The vehicle operations department can be reached on +382 30 311 418 and +382 30 313 957. Before going there, confirm where your car is, the pickup location and the removal costs.
