Itinerary
Lesendro is a peninsula and fortress on Skadar lake, located near the village Vranjina. The fortress was built in the 18th century. It is located on the peninsula that was an island until the construction of the Belgrade - Bar railway line. During the reign of Bishop Peter II Petrović-Njegoš, it served as a defense against Turkish attacks. Tour plan: Departure is from Virpazar. Cruising begins through a beautiful little channel surrounded by various plants and birds, after which we come to a bigger part of the lake. By boat we pass under the bridge which is part of the main road Podgorica – Bar. Lesendro is located just behind the bridge. Just after Lesendro, we are cruising through bird reservation and narrow channels surrounded by water lilies, reeds and water nuts, as well as cruising through river Moraca. After that you will see big and small Cakovica islands where we will make a break for swimming - we call it wild swimming. After swimming we will go back to Virpazar.

Amazing boat tour very interesting and the instructor was very friendly and funny
Just an incredible experience. We took the 11am nature tour with Captain Boban who clearly loves what he does. Despite saying he spoke little English, somehow we understood everything (I think). He is also very good at photographs, showing us how to pose and made sure everyone had a turn. Nothing felt rushed including the swim towards the end, and he also shared recommendations for beaches, sites and restaurants and how to get there. I would absolutely recommend this trip to anyone.
Great experience and good value for money. Captain Bob (Boban) was a real character, friendly, funny, and knew all about the area and the wildlife. We would definitely recommend this trip.
Boban made our trip as amazing as possible, answering any questions, up for a friendly chat, or informing us on the geography and nature that surrounded us. I’d highly recommend this trip, you get way more than you pay for and an unforgettable experience. Seeing a captain so passionate about a view he sees daily just makes the moment even more beautiful as you see it for the first time.
Bobo is the best captain! Thank you for making it such a good experience!
Very nice experience on Lake Skadar. The lady who sold the tickets was very friendly and clear, good price also for the tour. The skipper was very nice and told everything about the lake, the birds and the land. All in all highly recommended to book with Eagle.
Wonderful experience! Capitain Boban was full of information about Skadar lake, Moraca river, kasoranje fruit and lake birds. Also, he is veeeery funny and always amusing guests with jockes. He is an expwrt to show you great panoramas, so Instagram get crazy because of photis he made of you! As he told us,he is rhe best paparazzo! We tasted kasoranje fruit. Also, we saw a lot of diffetent lake birds and made great photos! During the tour we get free drinks: Montenwgrin vine, water and orange juice. Passing fish restaurant, we pucked great places to eat fresh lake fish as krap (carp), skakavica, jegulja (eal). We have warm recommandation for Eagl boats and capitain Boban and we are going to book all day tour for our friends and us very soon!
We had a very entertaining and enjoyable boat ride on Lake Skadar and would highly recommend this excursion to others!
Super interesting and the captain of the boat a great guide. He's taught us so many things about the lake. You rating that the captain enjoys his work and makes the group enjoy the trip.
An absolute experience. The captain a real brand. We actually booked the boat tour at 16:00. Due to a lot of traffic we were not able to do this but were able to rebook for the ride at 18:00. This trip was actually reserved for the captain and his family. So we had the honor of being guests on this special ride & it became special. With a lot of attention to detail, an incredible atmosphere and great background information we had an unforgettable evening. Absolutely recommend!!!
