2026 Private Boat To Blue Cave 3 hours ADVENTURE runs through Hawaii Boat Tours Kotor. Rated 4.8 across 168 reviews. Runs 3 hours. From $342.
Overview
This three-hour private speedboat trip runs from Kotor's Park Slobode 1 and strings together the Bay of Kotor's best-known waterborne stops. Hawaii Boat Tours Kotor supplies a licensed English-speaking skipper who also acts as guide, plus music, Wi-Fi, snorkeling masks, life jackets, raincoats, fuel, insurance, and all fees and taxes. Because the boat is private, only your group takes part.
The route heads first to the Blue Cave, where the listing allows 30 minutes, the longest stop of the trip. From there the pace quickens: 5 minutes at Our Lady of the Rocks, 10 minutes at Mamula Fortress, a 15-minute stop in Perast, and 10 minutes at a former submarine tunnel. Every admission along the way is free, and the tour finishes back at the same meeting point in Kotor.
It suits travellers who want the headline sights of the bay without committing a full day, and who would rather share the boat with their own party than join a group of strangers. It is not a fit for wheelchair users, and the listing does not recommend it for pregnant travellers. Hotel pickup is not included, so you make your own way to the dock.

What To Expect From The Tour
A few practical points will help you plan around the tight schedule and the boat setting.
- Getting there. There is no hotel pickup. The meeting point is Park Slobode 1 in Kotor, and the operator asks everyone to arrive 30 minutes early. The operator warns that summer traffic jams are common, so allow plenty of time to arrive on time.
- Who can go. The tour is private, so only your group is on board. Infants must sit on laps, and the listing says most travellers can participate. It is not wheelchair accessible and is not recommended for pregnant travellers.
- What is on board. The boat carries music, Wi-Fi, snorkeling masks, life jackets, raincoats, fuel, and insurance. A licensed English-speaking skipper guides the trip. All fees and taxes are covered in the booking.
- Timing at stops. The stops are short apart from the Blue Cave. Our Lady of the Rocks gets 5 minutes, Mamula Fortress and the submarine tunnel get 10 minutes each, and Perast gets 15 minutes. Treat this as a sampler rather than a deep visit to any one place.
- Weather dependency. The listing states the experience requires good weather. If it is cancelled for poor conditions, you are offered a different date or a full refund.
- Getting around. The meeting point is near public transportation. The tour ends at the same spot where it starts.
Common issues. The strictest downside is the late arrival policy: arriving after the start time may mean you lose the tour with no refund or reschedule, and summer traffic jams in Kotor make that a real risk. Some stops are very brief, with only 5 minutes at Our Lady of the Rocks, so anyone wanting longer ashore in Perast or at the islands may feel rushed. Wheelchair users cannot join, and the listing advises against the trip for pregnant travellers. No food or drink is listed as included, and hotel pickup is not provided.
