Bay Guide

Boka Kotorska Bay

Rarely you come across the beauty that leaves you struggling for superlatives, so breathtaking, you have few words to describe it. Hemmed in by cliffs that command the view, gazing upon serpentine straits and foamy gulfs marking an invisible border of the Bay, Montenegro’s Boka Kotorska Bay resembles a giant blue cauldron from a bird’s eye view.

The picturesque landscape of the legendary Boka Kotorska Bay is brimming with Venetian old towns and historical meccas scattered along the coastline, guarding the rich and magnificent history of Montenegro.

Discover the camera-ready medieval towns, numerous citadels and island monasteries – explore the Bay’s narrow and winding roads, but also make sure to enjoy the sceneries from the deck of your yacht, while gliding across its waters.

Explore the Boka Kotorska Bay and get to know Montenegro at its original, historical core.
