Full description
Take a break from the everyday with this creative and relaxing Retreat Art Tour on Lake Skadar. Departing from the charming village of Virpazar, you’ll set off on a traditional wooden boat and drift through the tranquil canals and open lake, surrounded by stunning scenery, birds, and floating lily fields.
Once the boat anchors in a peaceful area of the lake, your guide will lead a casual, no-pressure painting session designed for all skill levels. Whether you’re a seasoned artist or just trying something new, this is a space to create freely while immersed in nature. All materials are provided, you just bring yourself!
As you paint, enjoy a tasting of premium local wine and watch the colors of the lake change with the setting sun. Afterward, there’s time for a swim in the lake’s calm waters before the boat slowly cruises back to shore.
This experience is designed to combine creativity, nature, and relaxation. It is ideal for solo travelers, couples, or friends looking for a unique and meaningful escape on the water.
A word from your host
Ivana
Hi, I’m Ivana! I grew up on the shores of Skadar Lake and know its hidden corners, birds, and backwaters like the back of my hand. As both a nature lover and art enthusiast, I co-created this experience to help people slow down, reconnect with themselves, and express their creativity in a peaceful setting. Whether you're picking up a paintbrush for the first time or just here to relax with a glass of wine, I’ll make sure you feel inspired, comfortable, and fully present in the moment 😊
