Things to do in Kotor
Kotor's own Old Town, ringed by medieval walls and backed by a fortress climbing the cliff above it, is compact enough to see in an afternoon – which is exactly why most visitors use it as a base for what's reachable by boat and by road around it.

Day Trips in Kotor
See all →Bay of Kotor boat tour – a short speedboat route to the Blue Cave, the artificial island of Our Lady of the Rocks off Perast, and a Cold War-era submarine base hidden along the shore – is the easiest, shortest way to see the bay beyond the Old Town itself.
For a longer day, Lovćen National Park and Cetinje climbs into the mountains above the bay to the world's highest mausoleum, then continues to Montenegro's former royal capital and the island resort of Sveti Stefan on the coast.
