Kotor in short
Kotor sits where the Bay of Kotor runs out of room, with mountains rising almost vertically behind a Venetian walled town of squares and stone lanes.
The fortress walls climb 1,350 steps up the cliff behind it, and the view from the top is the reason most people's Montenegro photos look the same.

Why visit Kotor?
The city walls
A steep climb above the old town to San Giovanni fortress and the full bay view.
A car-free old town
Small enough to cross in ten minutes and pleasantly confusing to navigate.
Swimming in the bay
Calm, sheltered water with beaches and jetties around the whole shoreline.
Things to do
Climb to San Giovanni
Start early or late — there is no shade on the steps in the middle of the day.
Perast and Our Lady of the Rocks
A baroque village up the bay, with boats out to a church on an artificial island.
Kayak the bay
Rent from the waterfront and paddle along the shore to the quieter villages.
Lovćen day trip
Twenty-five hairpin bends up to the mausoleum above the bay.
