Operated by Tide and Wave · Perast, Kotor Municipality
The boat slips away from Kotor’s stone quay and the bay exhales; buildings of the old city recede as you slide into a glassy corridor of water. Salty wind tugs at your hair, gulls wheel, and the skipper eases into a steady route that contours the bay’s steep limestone arms. Twenty minutes later a tiny man-made island rises — its white church and low stone walls bright against deep blue — a human interruption in a sea that seems intent on reclaiming everything.
easy.
1.5 hours (90 minutes).
Suitable for most fitness levels; requires short walks on uneven stone streets and boarding a small boat

Yes — the skipper provides snorkeling masks and you can swim off the boat during the tour when conditions allow; bring swimwear and a towel.
The island and Perast have stairs and uneven stone paths; while infants in strollers are allowed, full wheelchair access is limited.
Exploring the island is free but the church and museum charge about €3 each; the tour provides bottled water and snorkeling gear but not museum tickets.
If you’re prone to motion sickness, sit mid-boat, face forward, take preventative medication before departure, and keep hydrated.
Pickups are possible only near the sea; you’ll need to come down to the shoreline or meet at the designated quay listed in your booking.

Boaters are encouraged to avoid anchoring on sensitive seabed and carry out waste; supporting local museums and cafes helps fund preservation of Perast’s historic fabric.
