Viganj is a picturesque town where I love bringing my kids. The unspoiled pebbly beaches with shallow clear waters are just perfect for the kids. The Beach volleyball is what I love the most. I recommend this town to all families.

It was nice to come to this town for my summer trip. I loved going cycling around the town enjoying the enchanting views. Towards the end of the trip, I enjoyed deep massages at the serene spas. I left here a different person very relaxed.

I joined a windsurfing class at the main beach, Ponta of this location. I particularly loved that they had trainers for students in different levels and they had equipments one could rent for training. I enjoyed the experience and will visit the location again.
