Hop to the island of Katič for diving, explore the fort on Mamula, or find isolation at uninhabited Stari Ulcinj.
Dream Yacht Charter in Montenegro: We have a large fleet of catamarans and monohulls in Montenegro to suit any sailor, whether you’re looking for a bareboat, by the cabin or crewed yacht charter. Our new base is next to the new marina Porto Montenegro, Tivat, in the Bay of Kotor. This is southern Europe’s longest fjord, which is lined with forests and dwarfed by hulking mountain ranges that drop dramatically into the bay.
