- Boat trip in the Bay of Kotor -

Foreword

A guided sea tour along the famous Kotor Fjord is not only a picturesque boat trip through the gulf, amazing in its relief, but also a historical dive.

In addition to the natural beauty of Europe's southernmost fjord and the splendor of the miles of mountains that surround it, you will now completely repeat the path of the Venetian sailors who returned home from a long and dangerous voyage to the city of Perast.

Perast is included in the UNESCO list of historical heritage.

Yes, yes, you will repeat the journey home of these sea wolves. After visiting the ultra-modern sailing city of Porto Montenegro, this boat trip will see the island of Otok, where the crew of every Venetian galley endured a mandatory 40-day quarantine.

After that, passing the narrow and picturesque banks of the Verige Strait, you will go to the Venetian colony of Perast and visit an unusual island, where there is a unique “floating on the sea” temple of the Virgin, painted with unusual frescoes. This island has its own history that you will learn. After visiting this temple island, you will land on the embankment of the city of Perast itself, see its baroque chambers, narrow Italian streets, dream with the help of a tour guide about the times when the wives of sailors sat on their balconies and waited for their sailors from a long one Travel and peered into the silhouettes of every ship that passed through the Verige Strait.

Maybe this is the returning husband, or maybe the Ottoman pirates are sailing to capture another trophy in the Turkish harem…

On the way back, returning to Tivat, you will see the "Island of Dead Captains" - the island of St. George with a Catholic monastery, on the territory of which representatives of the Perast seafaring dynasties were buried for centuries. In addition to the beauty of the Gulf, our tour guide will tell you something about the life of Venetian sailors in the Middle Ages and learn some legends about the love and fate of such families who lived from the sea and connected their lives with the sea.

The tour route consists of a boat trip along the bay for 3 hours Tivat - Perast - Tivat + 2 hours bus (from Budva to Tivat 1 hour and back to Bundva from Tivat 1 hour). 5 hours in total.
