About This Tour

Enjoy 6 hours of fun with our Full-Day Trip to the Bay 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 Zanjice Beach where our skipper is leaving you to enjoy the natural beauties of this area.

Coming to Montenegro and Kotor during peak season can sometimes be an uncalled annoyance if you are improperly 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 many panoramic views - with your eyeballs directly targeting the ancient towns of  Herceg Novi, Kotor, and Tivat.

Apart from the natural splendor that encircles 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 certainly not least) on our agenda is a memorable swimming session inside the radiantly colored Blue Cave! Since motorized boats stay outside, you will simply swim right into the cave from our close anchorage to refresh yourself and experience the glowing turquoise magic up close.

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

Zanjice is probably considered the most famous beach on the Lustica Peninsula, also called President Beach due to a time when Tito used this space as a private resort.

Accessible only by boat, it is a favorite attraction for swimming, relaxation, and excursions during shoulder and peak seasons. It is encircled by two verdurous, sloping capes which cover the area’s clear waters, and where you can see reflections of the beautiful olive groves that grace it.

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

Six hours sounds long but it flies. Three hours of free time at Zanjice is the selling point — we swam, ate grilled fish at the beach restaurant, and were back on the boat without feeling rushed once.

Best day of our holiday. You get the whole bay, the cave, the submarine tunnel and a proper beach afternoon in one trip. Take sunscreen, there is very little shade on the boat.

Well organised from start to finish. The skipper checked the forecast and moved our departure an hour earlier to avoid afternoon wind, which we only appreciated later when we saw how flat the sea stayed.

Went with two teenagers who are hard to impress and both said it was the best thing we did all week. The cave swim and the beach stop broke the day up nicely so nobody got bored on the boat.

Really good trip but be aware the beach restaurant is not included, so budget for lunch. Everything on the water was exactly as described and the return leg along the coast at the end of the day was beautiful.
