This 3-hour boat tour in Kotor explores key sites in Boka Bay by speedboat. The trip begins with a 20-minute cruise along the coast, offering views of Kotor Bay and nearby fishing villages such as Muo, Prcanj, and Stoliv. Passengers see forests, old stone houses, churches, and the region's architecture from the water. The tour then reaches Perast, a town with a preserved old street and a history dating back 3,500 years. Perast overlooks the bay and is near two islands. One of these, Our Lady of the Rocks, is an artificial island built by sailors who deposited stones over time. Visitors disembark here for about 20 minutes to explore the church and museum on the island. Next, the boat approaches the submarine base located inside the Lustica Peninsula. Accessed by boat, the base was used during the world wars by the Yugoslavian army and is visited for about 10 minutes. The tour also passes Mamula Island, which has a fort built in 1853 and served as a concentration camp in the 1940s. Finally, the tour stops at the Blue Cave for 30 minutes. The cave is known for its blue light caused by sunlight reflecting off the white-pebble floor underwater. Visitors can swim, take photos, and listen to music while inside the cave. The boat is equipped with life jackets, bottled water, and an audio guide available in several languages. The skipper and guide provide commentary throughout the tour. Admission to Our Lady of the Rocks Island is not included and will be charged separately starting April 1, 2026.
