Full description
Your half-day escape begins at Budva Marina, where you’ll meet your skipper and set off west along the coast. Within minutes, Budva’s Old Town appears behind you while you cruise past the golden shoreline and the famous Mogren beaches.
Next, you’ll reach the Blue Lagoon, a calm, photogenic stretch of water. Take a swim, float, snorkel, and enjoy the kind of blue you normally only see on postcards.
From there, continue toward Calypso Cave, where you can swim and explore the cave’s dramatic rock formations and shimmering water.
After cave time, head to Saint Nikola Island (often nicknamed “Hawaii”), known for its wilder beaches and tucked-away corners like Love Cave. If your group is feeling brave, this is also the spot where you can try cliff jumping (totally optional, no pressure, only cheers).
Finally, cruise south-east to legendary Sveti Stefan for the last swim stop of the day. Drift in the water with views of the island, then enjoy the scenic ride back past King’s Beach and Queen’s Beach and charming coastal villages like Pržno, Kamenovo, Rafailovići, returning to Budva Marina feeling salty, sun-kissed, and completely reset.
This is a private trip, so the vibe is yours: relaxed sightseeing, nonstop swimming, or a bit of both!

About your host
Stevan
Hi, I’m Stevan! And with my colleague Marko, we'll be your captains for a fun day on the sea in Budva. We’ve been running boats around Budva for years, so we know exactly where the water is clearest, where the caves look their best, and when to stop so you get the perfect swim (and the perfect photo).
Expect good music, plenty of swim time in amazing water, and a lot of fun along the way!

We had a lovely, calming boat trip all round Budva, past Hawaii and over to Sveti Stefan with stops for a swim and some snorkeling, in the most amazing water. Budva's beaches aren't great so this is the best way to appreciate how nature has blessed Budva. Stevan was so nice and his wooden boat is a delight!

This was the best money we spent during our stay in Montenegro. Our captain, Marco, was very kind and friendly. He talked with us a lot. When we didn't want to swim to the cave ourselves, he got off the boat and showed us how to swim. The experience was fantastic, with beautiful views and clear water unlike any other beach. We highly recommend it and will definitely use this option again! Greetings from Poland.
