Sailing

Several charter companies are based in the protected waters of Kotor Bay. For a one-week trip in August, expect to pay €2,500 for a 40-foot sailboat sleeping six, plus €130 per day for a skipper; prices do not include food, fuel, or mooring fees. Early booking (e.g., by February for the summer) will offer worthwhile discounts. Montenegro Charter Company offers one-day sailing trips (with skipper) on a private yacht around Kotor Bay.

The former military shipyard in Tivat, 5 km (3 miles) away, has been totally renovated and reopened as Porto Montenegro, a luxury marina, able to accommodate some of the world’s largest super-yachts.
