The boat slips away from Kotor’s stone pier and the city’s old walls fall back like pages in a book. The bay contracts and widens with each turn; limestone ridges lean over the water and the sea takes on the color of a deep coin. On this private 90-minute cruise, the island of Our Lady of the Rocks appears as a deliberate punctuation — low, white, and improbably human-made — while Perast’s Baroque roofs and the clock tower of 1713 rise behind it, catching the late light.

Boarding is on cobbles
Wear shoes with good grip for getting on and off the boat; the dock and Perast streets are uneven and can be slippery when wet.
Take the sunset slot
If photography or the golden light matters, book the late-afternoon departure — the bay goes glassy and colors deepen toward dusk.

Respect the church
Our Lady of the Rocks is a sacred site; modest dress and quiet conduct are expected inside the church and museum.
