Itinerary
The Blue Cave is about an hour from Kotor, and the scenic speedboat ride through the Bay of Kotor and into the open Adriatic Sea is an experience in itself. 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.
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.
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.
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 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.
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.

Amazing experience! We highly recommend the Blue Cave + Our Lady of the Rocks tour. The crystal-clear water of the Blue Cave was absolutely breathtaking. The boat crew was incredibly friendly, fun, attentive, and helpful throughout the whole experience.
Thank you so much! We're delighted that you chose to explore the Blue Cave and Our Lady of the Rocks with us. It means a lot to hear that our crew helped make the experience as enjoyable as the scenery itself. We're very grateful for your kind words and recommendation, and we hope to welcome you back on board again someday!
If you have a need for speed, this is for you. It was a fun and exciting trip with beautiful scenery. The blue cave was awesome, very refreshing on a hot day.
Thank you for the great review! We’re glad you enjoyed the excitement of the speedboat and had a chance to cool off in the Blue Cave. Boka Bay is certainly a special place to experience from the water, especially on a hot summer day.
Wonderful experience, we were very happy with the entire management, from the booking to the meeting point and the tour. Beautiful!
We’re really pleased to hear that everything felt smooth from the first booking contact through to the tour itself. We put a lot of effort into making the whole experience easy and well organized for our guests, so it's amazing to know it was recognised. Thank you for joining us!
We had a fantastic tour with Sea Stars Boat Tours Kotor. What really stood out was the exceptional communication and personal service from this family-owned business. We were arriving by cruise ship, and the owner contacted me beforehand because our scheduled tender might make us late. Instead of simply canceling our reservation, he worked with me to make sure we could get there in time. The morning of the tour, he stayed in contact, watched for our tender, and sent clear directions to the meeting point. We made it just in time and had a wonderful tour. It’s rare to receive this level of personal attention. I highly recommend Sea Stars, especially for cruise passengers!
Thank you so much for taking the time to write such a detailed review. For cruise guests, we know that getting ashore and reaching the meeting point on time can sometimes be stressful, so we’re always happy to do our best to help things run smoothly. I’m especially glad we could stay in touch that morning and make sure everything worked out. As a family-owned business, that personal communication is something we really value, so your words mean a lot to our whole team. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we truly appreciate you choosing us during your visit to Kotor!
Great afternoon out with the family ( two teens) . Loved the thrill of the speed boat and swimming around the blue caves. The group was small so felt exclusive but affordable. Would highly recommend.
We're so glad you and your family had a great afternoon with us. We love hearing that the combination of a small group, the speedboat experience, and time in the water made the tour enjoyable for both you and the kids.
Everything was great, only felt like everything on a rush, boat was speeding, impossible to take photos, a lot of other tours around so we got to be fast everywhere. I think such tour would be perfect for 4 hours. :)
Thank you for sharing your feedback with us. We're glad you enjoyed the tour overall, and we really appreciate you taking the time to point out where you felt there was room for improvement. We will certainly take your suggestion into consideration and look at how we can make the experience feel more relaxed while still keeping the tour enjoyable and well organized. Feedback like this is genuinely useful to us, and we'll keep working on improving the experience for our guests. Thank you again for choosing us!
Wonderful boat trip with amazing views
Thank you for your lovely review! We're glad you enjoyed your time on the water and the incredible scenery Boka Bay has to offer. It's always a pleasure to share this part of Montenegro with our guests.
This tour is well organized and communication is excellent. Just a short 5 minute walk from the tender port. This is a speed boat ride so it gets a little bumpy so taking photos is a little challenging but doable. We went out on a really hot day, so we really appreciated the breeze on the boat. It made it a lot more comfortable. The scenery is absolutely stunning. Probably one of the most picturesque places we've been to yet. The blue cave was lovely. Getting off the boat for a swim is totally optional. We also visited one of the submarine hiding caves. We stopped in a village halfway back to get souvenirs and a cold drink. Well worth the money. I highly recommend that you do this activity. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves.
Thank you for such a detailed review. We're glad you enjoyed the day and found the tour comfortable even on a particularly hot day. Boka Bay is certainly best appreciated from the water, and we're happy you had the opportunity to experience some of its most beautiful spots along the way. We also appreciate you mentioning the communication and organization. We put a lot of effort into making the experience straightforward for our guests. We truly appreciate you joining us and taking the time to share your feedback.
