Petrovac or Bar montenegro? Coming from Shkoder Albania

Hello! I will be coming to Montenegro next week!
Im coming from Shkoder and planning to take a bus.
Should I get off at Bar or Petrovac?

I really want to spent most of my time at the beach, cafes, walking around nice streets. No need for nightlife and such.

I'm having the hardest time deciding which is the better option.

Also, considering I'm without a car, I need an OK bus system, (or taxi?) to get to the beaches.

Thank you very much, I'm excited!

Montenegro without a car- tips?

I'm coming next week to Montenegro from Albania, can I deal without a car?

I wish to visit some beaches near Petrovac, Sveti Stefan, Budva, hike a bit at Zabljak, then Kotor bay.

Are there buses going to these places easily? Can I stay around Budva and get to the near towns?

And the north hiking, are there buses to there?

If not, would love to hear car rental tips, I'll probably want to rent at Budva and return it at Kotor
Thank you!

Valbonë to Theth, with shala river, mid may- Albania

Hi!
I will be coming to Albania around 20th of may.
I'm planning to do the Valbonë to Theth hike, firstly with a stop at shala river.

The minivan picks us up from Theth back to Shkoder at 5pm, should I stay 2 nights? Is there enough to do for two full days? (One with overnight and the next until 5 pm)

Also, can u tell me how the weather usually is around that time? Wondering what to pack!

I'm a beginner at hiking, so tips are really appreciated.

Thank you! Excited to start my Balkan coastline trip!
