Weed in Petrovac, Montenegro: my experience

Hi, smokers! You probably know that cannabis laws and regulations vary from one county to another, so let’s go deeper and try to understand what is going on with weed in Petrovac. My post covers info about weed laws, regulations, general attitude of locals and cops, hash VS weed availability and pricing, failures and success in searching weed in Petrovac.

I just got back from Petrovac a couple of days ago, and as I sit here enjoying a small joint of white widow, I can’t help but reflect on the great time I had in Petrovac — thanks in part to the cannabis that accompanied me on my adventures.

Cannabis laws in Petrovac, Montenegro

It is important to note that cannabis, weed, and hash are prohibited in Petrovac. You can not officially purchase marijuana strains with high THC concentration in some coffee shops like in Amsterdam. Medical CBD cannabis may be available for purchase at dispensaries, but a prescription from a doctor is required, and you will never get high with CBD.

In one sports bar I got acquainted with Alex who moved to Petrovac 3 years ago, so he knows the local drug scene. According to Alex - despite cannabis being banned according to laws, cops are generally relaxed about weed, sometimes being smokers themselves.

What’s the Law Say vs. What’s Really Good?

Officially, anything with more than 1% THC is a no-go in Petrovac. But Alex put me on game — cops in Petrovac are chill about the weed. Unless you’re actin' a fool or got bad luck with the wrong officer, you might just get your stash snatched, have a chat, and be on your way. But yo, don’t push it. Keep it low-key, don’t smoke in public, and if you’re holdin' less than 10g of weed or 5g of hash, you should be straight.

What Do People in Petrovac Think About Weed?

Even though weed is against the rules, a lot of people in Petrovac don’t mind it too much. They just think you should be polite and not smoke it in front of everyone.

As I was actively asking and discussing weed - Alex invited me to his apartment for a small party that very first evening - just a couple of his rasta friends, beer, weed and PS5 - exactly what I do love😁😁😁. How lucky I was😁 Alex told he will be my weed dealer while I am here in Petrovac so I had no issues with great stuff all that time.

Alex also confirmed locals are OK with weed in Petrovac if you behave yourself correctly, while it’s better to avoid cops and not to have more than 10 grams in your pocket.

Where to Buy Cannabis in Petrovac

So, how do you actually buy cannabis in Petrovac? Alex shared some insights. Big dealers in Petrovac often source their products through the darknet — using services like DrChronic or Bitpharma. They then resell the cannabis to locals and tourists. While this method is possible, it’s not really practical for short-term visitors. Navigating the darknet and waiting for a package can be complicated and time-consuming.

For the average tourist, the game has changed. You ain’t gon' find street dealers in Petrovac as easy anymore. Now, it’s all about those encrypted messengers. You get the plug’s contact, check out the menu, and decide on a drop-off spot. No face-to-face meetups, just a masked package and some GPS coordinates. Pay with crypto, pick up your stash, and dip. Safe and sound. Was I glad I had Alex as my connect? Hell yeah. Didn’t have to mess with all that drama.
