TOUR DESCRIPTION

Highlights

Enjoy 6 hours of fun with our Full-Day Trip of thtoBay of Kotor, where you can indulge in panoramic sightseeing of the bay’s arena, visit the marvelous church, Our Lady of the Rocks, feel the distressing emanation of the island Mamula, and go for a swim in the luminous Blue Cave

The tour ends (or for some of you - starts) at Rose Beach where our skipper is leaving you to enjoy the natural beauties of this area. 

Successfully avoiding crowds by fully fusing with Nature

Coming to Montenegro and Kotor during peak season can sometimes be an uncalled annoyance if you are not properly organized. On top of that, it is known that Kotor doesn’t have many beach areas to brag about. Just a few of them make it on the list of sandy or pebble beaches, with the rest being docks for boats, racers, yachts, and other water vehicles in which vicinity you surely don’t want to dip your body in.

For reasons like these we offer our passengers the opportunity to hop on a speedboat with us and cruise through the splendid region of Boka Bay, right as we transport you to some of the most amazing beaches - considered hidden gems of the bay.

This boat trip includes breathing in the fresh breeze of Boka Bay while enjoying a plethora of panoramic views - with your eyeballs directly targeting the ancient towns of  Herceg Novi, Kotor, and Tivat.

Apart from the natural splendor that’s encircling us, there will also be a lot of stories and legends to listen to; the mythical genesis of the man-made island Our Lady of the Rocks, a horror-packed history of the island Mamula, as well as testimonies on how we used the gifts of nature to camouflage our former military base to shelter our submarines during WWII.

And last (but not least important) on our agenda is a short swimming session in the radiantly colored Blue Cave that you can use to refresh yourself from the trip.

The incredibly clear waters of Rose Beach

This is the part you’ve been waiting for. After we checked everything from our list of places to visit, we’ll approach Rose Beach and drop you off to savor your time at the beach.

Rose Beach is a hidden gem nestled along the picturesque coast of Montenegro. Immerse yourself in the enchanting beauty of Rose Beach, where every sunset paints the sky with breathtaking hues, leaving you in awe of the world's natural wonders. It is an old settlement located on the Luštica peninsula, at the very entrance to Kotor Bay, and is considered one of the oldest settlements in Boka Bay. Foreign and domestic ships were supplied with goods at that time.

The name is derived from the Italian word “rose” meaning – rose. This location boasts the highest number of sunny hours throughout the year throughout the entire Boka region and is characterized by the imposing Austro-Hungarian fortress, Forte Rose. Ideal for divers, this destination is accessible by both land and sea routes.

We have two available departure options for this tour, and the hop-on and hop-off details are as follows:

  • 9 am - You arrive at the beach at 11 am, our skipper will come for you at 5 pm
  • 12 pm - You arrive at the beach at 2 pm, our skipper will come for you at 5 pm

This tour is a definite must on any traveler’s to-do list. Make sure to reach out and book an experience that you will never forget. Click here and book on time.
