Cut across Kotor Bay by speedboat to visit the man-made Our Lady of the Rocks and plunge into the iridescent Blue Cave. This three-hour private tour blends coastal history, panoramic cruising, and a shoreline swim for up to six guests.
The engine’s staccato buzz cuts across glassy water as the speedboat leaves Kotor’s stone quay. Mountains close in like pages, their grey faces dropping to olive-dotted slopes and red-tiled roofs, while the bay opens into a corridor of reflected sky. Your skipper eases into a rhythm—short bursts between glassy coves, a steady glide through the Verige strait—and the coastline starts to reveal itself: fishermen’s hamlets clinging to shore, ruined towers, and the small, white dot of an island church that seems to float.

Meeting point is by the sea information desk near the small bridge; operators require you to check in 30 minutes before departure.
You cannot enter Our Lady of the Rocks in swimwear—bring a light shirt or sarong to cover up; drones and swimming are prohibited at the islet.
Swim only under skipper direction—water can be choppy inside the cave; wear water shoes to protect feet on rocky entries.
Bring sunscreen, sunglasses, and a windproof layer—the bay sun is intense and the wind chills on open stretches.
Kotor Bay’s villages were shaped by Venetian maritime rule and local seafaring traditions; Our Lady of the Rocks was built by sailors who laid stones to mark safe returns.
Anchoring and drone restrictions protect fragile islets and underwater habitats; avoid single-use plastics and follow skipper guidance to minimize impact.
