More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step from the shaded city park onto a low-slung speedboat and the bay pulls you out of town like a tide. The captain, born in Kotor and a former cruise-ship officer, trims the throttle and points toward a glittering cluster of islands—piercing limestone cliffs, a tiny artificial islet with a white church, and a hulking fortress that has watched the Adriatic for a century. Sea spray tastes like salt and old stories; gulls quarrel with the wake as the boat slides across a mirror of cobalt.
