Detailed itinerary
1
Stop 1
A 20-minute stop on the island of Our Lady of the Rocks offers a peaceful and scenic escape. Visitors can explore the beautifully preserved Roman Catholic church and its small museum, filled with maritime artifacts and local history. Surrounded by the calm waters of the Bay of Kotor, the island provides stunning panoramic views of Perast and the surrounding mountains—perfect for photos and a moment of reflection in this unique, man-made sanctuary.
2
The panoramic view of Perast from the sea is a breathtaking sight: a charming coastal town nestled between the deep blue waters of the Bay of Kotor and the dramatic backdrop of steep, green mountains. Elegant stone houses, baroque churches, and a striking bell tower line the waterfront, reflecting in the calm Adriatic. Just offshore, the twin islets of Our Lady of the Rocks and Saint George add to the scene’s timeless beauty, making Perast a picture-perfect gem of Montenegro’s coast.
3
A 10-minute visit to the Yugoslav-era submarine tunnels offers a fascinating glimpse into Cold War history. Carved directly into the rocky coastline, these hidden naval shelters once served as secret bases for submarines. As you step inside, you’ll feel the cool air and hear the echo of the past in the massive concrete chambers. Though brief, the visit reveals an intriguing contrast between Montenegro’s natural beauty and its strategic military past.
4
As you pass by Mamula Island on the boat tour, you’ll see a striking 19th-century circular fortress rising from the sea at the entrance to the Bay of Kotor. Once a WWII prison camp, the island now blends history with dramatic coastal scenery—an unforgettable sight against the backdrop of the open Adriatic.

Stop 5
Swimming in the Blue Cave is a breathtaking experience. Surrounded by glowing blue light created by sunlight reflecting through the water, you’ll float in crystal-clear, calm seas. The cave’s natural beauty and peaceful atmosphere make it one of Montenegro’s most unforgettable spots for a refreshing swim.
