Detailed itinerary

Stop 1 Pass by

Departure is from our pier in Park Sloboda, just a few hundred meters from the main entrance to the Old Town of Kotor and the Cruise Ship Terminal. After looking at the walls of the fortress that rise high above the city and the ancient Kotor buildings, we pass by small coastal fishing villages Dobrota, Muo, Prcanj, and Stoliv.

Stop 2

Our first stop is on the charming little island Our Lady of the Rocks, located opposite the Old Town of Perast, which is on the UNESCO World Heritage List. Numerous stories and legends are associated with Our Lady of the Rocks and the church of the same name. The most interesting of them will be gladly conveyed to you by the skippers and curators of the museum.

Our final destination is a small family farm on the coast with mussels for which it is famous. There you can enjoy completely homemade and organic products in an authentic ambiance. While the restaurant owner takes the shells out of the sea and cleans the fresh fish, his wife will prepare delicious food right in front of you.
