Montenegro

Marina village central

Tivat

Located in the middle part of the bay of Kotor, Tivat is home to Porto Montenegro’s marina village. Seen as the most developed and modern marina in the region, it is the perfect hub to begin any luxury charter through Montenegro. With roots dating as far back as the Roman, Medieval and Venetian era this harbour was turned into an Austrian naval base at the end of the 19th century. Home to various beautiful coves and bays take a hike along Vrmac Ridge from the Trojica fortress to Gornja Lastva before heading off. 

Medieval fortress

Kotor

A must-see, this stunning medieval fortress town spans far into the mountains. During the evening, the San Giovanni fortress is spectacularly lit up for a breathtaking effect. Previously under Russian, French, and Austrian rules, its architecture is unique. Walk the city walls to the fortress and take in the stunning views of the bay and then take the tunnel to Tivat.
