Description
Escape the crowds and set sail on a peaceful cruise through the breathtaking Boka Bay. Departing from Kotor, this tour offers a perfect blend of natural beauty, cultural heritage, and local legends.
A friendly skipper will welcome you aboard as you glide past dramatic coastal landscapes, charming fishing villages, Romanesque churches, and Byzantine palaces — each with a story to tell.
Your first stop is the iconic island of Our Lady of the Rocks, a place of legend and devotion. According to folklore, sailors built the island after finding an image of the Madonna and Child on a sea rock, as a token of gratitude for safe voyages. Over centuries, the site grew into a beautiful sanctuary adorned with votives, tapestries, paintings, and sacred relics.
After exploring the island and its museum, enjoy a relaxing break: grab a coffee, ice cream, or local souvenir before continuing to Perast, a UNESCO-listed town that echoes the grandeur of its Venetian past.
With its baroque palaces, ancient churches, and rich maritime history, Perast offers a window into centuries of life on the Adriatic coast, from the Illyrians to the Venetians. A truly unforgettable journey through time and sea.
