★★★★★★★★★★5.0 · 172 reviews · 3 hours (approx.) Top rated

Take a private three-hour speedboat cruise from Kotor for up to six people. Your English-speaking skipper guides you past Perast and Mamula Island, stops at Our Lady of the Rocks, and takes you swimming in the Blue Cave and through former submarine tunnels.

“We had a fun day with Pavle (I hope I am spelling that correctly) our boat captain! We learned so much about the history of the area. The submarine tunnels were amazing and creepy all at once! We found some great places to swim, my sons and I are strong swimmers so it was easy for us but my husband is not and got in and out quickly since he didn’t feel as confident in the current. Just one negative is It is quite a far ride to the blue cave but my sons (21,18&14) said it was one of their favorite tours we did on our trip to Europe.”

Take a three-hour private speedboat trip from Kotor to the Blue Cave, Our Lady of the Rocks, Mamula Fortress, and former submarine tunnels. Captain Aki or Bobin provides stories and commentary, with time for swimming when sea conditions allow.

“Bobin was our captain and made the adventure fun with music and commentary! We were unable to swim in blue cave due to traffic and water conditions, but he found another place for those who wanted to take a dip. The spots we stopped were cool but it is a lot of time riding in the boat, so in November bring enough warm layers.”

Cruise from Kotor through dramatic bay scenery to Our Lady of the Rocks, former submarine tunnels, Mamula Island, and the Blue Cave. This small-group speedboat trip takes up to 12 people, includes swimming time, and returns to Kotor after about three hours.

“Although I would not call the tour a luxury tour, we saw everything on the itinerary. The speed boat went fast and layers would be helpful in November. The guide reminded me of a NYC taxi driver, going fast. His English was limited, so very little information was shared during the tour. Smoking in the boat should be prohibited due to the limited space.”
