Description
Historical and wildlife boat tour on the Lake Skadar
Embarking on a historical and wildlife tour provides a unique blend of cultural heritage and natural beauty, offering a fulfilling experience for any traveler.
The journey begins in the charming town of Virpazar, nestled by the serene Lake Skadar.
This two-hour tour promises an enriching exploration of history, wildlife, and breathtaking landscapes, all within a compact yet comprehensive itinerary.
The first leg of the tour takes you sailing along the Crmnica River. This river, with its clear waters and lush surroundings, sets a tranquil tone for the journey. As you glide through the water, you can soak in the pristine beauty of the landscape, where verdant greenery contrasts with the deep blue of the river. The Crmnica River is not only a natural gem but also a lifeline for the local communities, providing water for agriculture and a habitat for various species of fish and birds.
Next, the boat sails towards the historic Lesendro Fortress.
Perched on a rocky island, the fortress stands as a testament to Montenegro's rich past. Built in the early 18th century, Lesendro has witnessed numerous battles and played a crucial role in the region's defense against Ottoman invasions. As you approach the fortress, its imposing walls and strategic location become apparent.
After immersing in the historical aura of Lesendro, the tour shifts focus to the abundant wildlife of the River Morača. This part of the journey is a haven for nature enthusiasts. The river's ecosystem supports a diverse range of flora and fauna, making it an excellent spot for birdwatching.
As you sail along, you might spot rare bird species, such as the Dalmatian pelican or the pygmy cormorant, both of which are native to this region.
The final segment of the tour involves sailing between the islands of Čakovića and Liponjak.
These islands, with their unique geographical features and untouched beauty, add a touch of mystery to the journey. The narrow passage between the islands offers stunning views of the surrounding landscape. The islands themselves are rich in biodiversity, with dense vegetation and a variety of bird species calling them home. This part of the tour allows for a deeper appreciation of the natural splendor that characterizes Lake Skadar and its environs.
As the tour draws to a close, the boat makes its way back to Virpazar. The return journey provides an opportunity to reflect on the experiences of the past two hours.
Before departure on the tour you will be provided with coffee of your choice and butter croissant FOR FREE!
