Once we arrive, you'll have around 25 minutes to swim and enjoy one of the most beautiful spots on the Montenegrin coast. Sunlight enters the cave and reflects off the seabed, turning the water a bright, glowing blue. You can swim and relax while surrounded by this magical natural phenomenon.

    2. Mamula Island

      You will enjoy a panoramic view of the fortress on Mamula Island, a small, circular island at the entrance of the Bay of Kotor. Once used as a military fortress, it stands strong against the sea, offering a striking and memorable sight from the boat.

      Pass by without stopping

    3. Here, we will visit the former submarine tunnels along the coast of Luštica Peninsula and go inside. These hidden tunnels were once used to shelter military submarines, and today you can explore them by boat and experience this unique piece of history up close.

      5 minutes here

    4. Our Lady of the Rocks

      Beautiful artificial island which began forming in 1452 when local sailors started dropping rocks after successful voyages. Here, you will enjoy views of this island and St.George while you are walking in Perast, one of the most beautiful towns in Montenegro.

      Pass by without stopping

    5. Island of Saint George

      Pass by the peaceful island of St. George, known for its centuries-old Benedictine monastery and cypress trees. Together with Our Lady of the Rocks, it creates one of the most recognizable views in the Bay of Kotor.

      Pass by without stopping

    6. Perast

      You will have 20 minutes of free time in the old town of Perast to walk, relax, and enjoy its quiet charm. This small, historic town is known for its stone houses, narrow streets, and beautiful views of the bay, making it a perfect spot to take photos or simply soak in the peaceful atmosphere. After this, return to the starting point in Kotor.

    Response from the operator: It’s great to hear you enjoyed your time out on the water and the views along the way.

    Perast tour and islands

    Information from start to finish was excellent, clear instructions where to go and when to be there. We got a message the evening before to say the area will be busy with cruise ships so advised us to take earlier trip at 09:00 hrs. This was really appreciated as the islands were very busy at that time so must have been over run at 12:00 our original time. Everything was on time and organised.

    Response from the operator: We really appreciate this feedback, especially the mention of our message the evening before. It’s great to hear that the change worked well for you and that everything from the instructions to the timing ran smoothly. We always try to stay one step ahead when we know conditions may affect the experience. Thank you for choosing Sea Stars and for taking the time to share your experience!

Perast was beautiful too. The team was very professional, friendly, and helpful. We really appreciated the clear instructions and excellent service. Highly recommend this tour to anyone visiting Kotor! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

    Response from the operator: It’s lovely to know you had such a good day with us. The Blue Cave swim is always a special part of the trip, so we’re happy that was one of the highlights for you, along with your time in Perast. We also really appreciate the comments about the organisation and communication. We try to make the practical side of the trip as easy as possible, so guests can just enjoy being out on the water.

    Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat: questions travelers ask

    Practical detail on this experience, plus the wider planning questions for Kotor.

    How much does Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat cost?

    +

    Prices start at $46 per person. The final price depends on the date, the time slot and the number of travelers, and peak weekends in Kotor usually price higher than midweek mornings. Live pricing and remaining availability are confirmed on the booking screen before you pay.

    How long does Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat take?

    +

    Plan for about 3 hours from start to finish, not counting travel to the meeting point. Most travelers leave another 30 minutes on either side so the rest of the day in Kotor is not rushed.

    Is Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat worth it?

    +

    It holds an Outty Ranking of 85 out of 100, which we label "Exceptional". That score blends traveler sentiment (4.8/5 across 202 reviews), the depth of that review evidence, recent booking momentum, value for money against comparable most highly reviewed in Kotor, and how flexible the cancellation terms are.

    Can I cancel or reschedule Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat?

    +

    Yes. Cancel free up to 24 hours before the start time for a full refund. Inside that window the booking is non-refundable, and no-shows are not refunded.

    Is Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat suitable for kids and families?

    +

    Yes, all ages are welcome. Families should still weigh the 3-hour running time, and strollers are easier on the earlier, quieter departures.

    How far in advance should I book Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat?

    +

    Around 71 people booked this in the last 30 days, so popular slots go early. Two to three weeks ahead is comfortable in shoulder season, while summer weekends and holidays in Kotor can sell out a month out. Same-day spots do open up when other travelers cancel, so it is worth checking if you are already in town.

    What should I bring or wear?

    +

    Bring photo ID, your booking confirmation on your phone, a refillable water bottle and comfortable shoes. Dress for the weather in Kotor and add a light layer if any part of the 3-hour experience runs outdoors or after sunset.

    Where does Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat start and how do I get there?

    +

    The exact meeting point and directions are on your voucher once you book, and they sit in central Kotor within reach of public transport. Arrive 15 minutes early: late arrivals are treated as no-shows by most operators.

    What are the best things to do in Kotor?

    +

    On Outty we rank every Kotor experience on the same 0 to 100 scale, and alongside this one the highest scorers right now include Kotor Bay Escape: Blue Cave, Beach & Swimming Time, Exclusive Blue Cave Kotor Swim, Mamula&Lady of the Rock 3 Hour, Blue cave, Mamula island, Submarine tunnels and Our lady of the Rocks (3h). The city page groups everything into most popular, highest reviewed, last minute and family-friendly so you can build a day around what actually delivers.

    When is the best time to visit Kotor?

    +

    Booking patterns follow the same curve: prices and queues climb in peak weeks, while shoulder season gives you better availability on the top-ranked experiences and more room to change plans.

    How many days do you need in Kotor?

    +

    Three full days covers the headline sights without sprinting. A workable rhythm is one anchor experience each morning, such as this one, an unhurried afternoon in a single neighborhood, then a food or nightlife booking in the evening. Five days lets you add a day trip outside the city.

    Do I book through Outty or through the operator?

    +

    Outty ranks and explains the experiences, then hands you to Viator to complete the booking with the operator directly. The price is the same as booking on Viator yourself, and Outty earns an affiliate commission on the referral, which is how the rankings stay free to read.

    What is included in Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat?

    +

    Included: Safety equipment; WI-FI - before the tour at our office; Licensed and Experienced Captain; Life jackets; and Tea and coffee. Not included: Church and museum tickets; Towels (not included but available for rent); and Snorkeling equipment. Always check the voucher for the final list before you travel.

    Does Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat include hotel pickup?

    +

    Yes, pickup is offered, or you can meet at the start point instead from 9 listed pickup locations in and around Kotor.

    What languages is Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat offered in?

    +

    It runs in English. Pick your language when choosing a date and time, as not every departure runs in every language.

    Will I get instant confirmation and a mobile ticket for Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat?

    +

    Confirmation is sent by the operator after booking, usually within 48 hours; if it is not confirmed you are not charged. Mobile tickets are accepted, so you can show the voucher on your phone.

    Is Kotor: Blue Cave 3-hour GROUP boat tour with modern speedboat wheelchair or stroller accessible?

    +
