Full description
Meet your guide at the Port of Kotor and start with a short, easy stroll from the harbor to the starting point. After a quick safety briefing and a rundown of the plan, hop into your kayak and set off onto the bay.
On the way out, you’ll paddle gently along the waterfront, with wide views of the mountains dropping into the sea and the charming villages of Muo and Prčanj ahead. The pace stays relaxed, giving you time to settle into an easy rhythm, take photos, and enjoy the quiet perspective you only get from the water.
When you arrive in Prčanj, you’ll have time to stretch your legs and visit the village. If you’d like, join your guide for a short walk to the Church of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin Mary, where you’ll hear about local traditions, faith, and the bay’s history. You’ll also have free time to enjoy a refreshing swim in the clear, calm waters of Prčanj, a perfect moment to relax, cool off, and take in the beauty of the bay before continuing your journey.
After the break, you’ll kayak back toward Kotor, passing Dobrota and finishing with memorable views of Kotor Old Town and its imposing walls. Along the way, your guide keeps the mood light while sharing stories about local life, maritime history, and the bay’s nature, so you leave with more than just photos!
Meeting point
In front of Konoba Akustik in Kotor
Meeting point is exit of Port of Kotor next to the escalators where your guide will wait for you

We love a Kayaking event and this one was brilliant. We had a lovely view of the bay and went over to the other side from Kotor. Or instructor was brilliant and we had a nice small group. Didn't take long to walk to the meeting point from kotor city. We had a nice amount of time to explore the other side and have a swim. Would recommend
Olha
Great tour. Seeing the shore from a kayak, moving at your own pace, is way more interesting than on a speedboat. I really liked the guide Luca. He's super friendly and positive, and his attitude really rubbed off on me. Luka shared a lot of interesting stuff about the places we were passing by. In Prčanj, we walked to a beautiful temple. We took a little rest and went for a swim. Everything was perfectly organized, it was a wonderful day :-) Thanks to Luca for the good company :-)
Amanda
We did a nice kayak trip with calm waters and have some free time to explore and discover another municipality in Kotor. Vladimir was also and excellent friendly guide that explained me very well the history of Kotor and also solve some doubts, but always creating a relaxed mood without overwhelming of information. I think it is a must if you like water sports, the planned route is not difficult at all and it is totally worthy. 10/10!!!

Amazing kayak tour with Vanja today - he was so personable, knowledgeable and chill. The perfect guide! We kayaked to a small beach in prcanj and Vanja took us on a tour around the area, giving us so much information and history. Communication was good and we met near kotor old town before walking about 5-10 mins to the kayaks. Thank you for a great morning!
Louis
Me and my partner had the tour today and cannot recommend it enough. Once collected by vanja at the port of kotor it’s a very short walk to the kayaks. Also he was all you could ask for in a tour guid. Such a genuine nice and welcoming guy, who is also clearly knowledgeable and passionate about the history of this place. Thank you for the great morning and also for telling us about ivo visin(look him up it’s impressive).
