Boka Kotorska Bay is one of the deepest and longest bays on the Adriatic Sea, recognized by UNESCO as one of the 25 most beautiful bays worldwide. Often called Europe’s southernmost fjord, the bay offers unique landscapes.

Along the way, admire views of the Luštica peninsula and Mamula island. The tour stops at the Blue Cave, where you can swim for about 20 minutes in its turquoise water. The cave covers an area of 300 square meters, with arches 25 meters high and water depths of 3 to 4 meters. The Blue Cave’s blue water reflects light inside, creating a distinctive glowing effect.

On the return, the boat pauses for five minutes to visit the Old Submarine Tunnel. Built during Yugoslav times, this tunnel was used to hide and repair submarines and ships. It measures up to 50 meters long, 7 meters wide, with an average depth of 8 meters, deepening up to 30 meters near the exit.
