Katič and Sveta Neđelja Islets

Katič (Montenegrin: Катич) and Sveta Neđelja (Montenegrin: Света Неђеља) are two small islets on the Adriatic Sea, located opposite of the town of Petrovac in the Montenegrin municipality of Budva.

The Sveta Neđelja islet has a small church of the same name built upon it, and coupled with the Katič islet, makes an attraction for diving enthusiasts.[1]
