This private charter boat tour in Kotor Bay lasts about three hours and offers a flexible schedule depending on weather conditions. The tour begins with a cruise through the Bay of Kotor, passing historic fishing villages and Mediterranean greenery while guests enjoy panoramic views from the boat. The first stop is Our Lady of the Rocks, a man-made island created by local seafarers. Visitors can enter the historic church to see paintings, votive offerings, and handcrafted items related to maritime traditions. Swimwear alone is not allowed inside the church; at least a T-shirt must be worn. Swimming and drone use are prohibited at this stop. After leaving the island, the boat passes by the town of Perast, known for its Venetian-era baroque palaces and churches. Next, the boat anchors 10 to 20 meters outside the Blue Cave entrance to protect the environment. Guests can swim into the cave to see the glowing blue water, with life jackets provided. On the return trip, the boat sails past Mamula Island, a 19th-century fortress that was used as a prison during World War II. The route continues through Verige, the narrowest part of the Bay of Kotor, and then enters the Bay of Tivat near old submarine tunnels from the Cold War era. An English-speaking skipper provides commentary about these landmarks throughout the cruise. The tour includes water, fuel, insurance, all fees and taxes, and the services of the skipper. Alcoholic drinks and the 3€ entry fee to Our Lady of the Rocks are not included. The tour operates only in good weather and offers rescheduling or refunds if canceled. Guests are advised to bring sun protection, comfortable footwear, swimwear, a jacket for cooler weather, and to arrive at the meeting point at least 30 minutes before departure to avoid missing the tour.
