Sightseeing
Perast is an old town in the Bay of Kotor, situated a few kilometres northwest of Kotor.
Despite Perast being tiny and only having one main road it is home to 16 historic churches, one of them being St. Nicholas’ Church, in which you can climb the 55m bell tower for impressive views over the bay.
Near Perast there are two islets: St.George and Our Lady of the Rocks. Altough St. George is a private island in the possession of the local Catholic Church, where the Montenegrin clergymen stay, Our Lady of the Rocks is open for tourist visitations, and is particularly interesting given that it is the only artificially-built island in the Adriatic.
I would recommend jumping on a water taxi and visiting Our lady of the Rocks, which has a pretty blue-domed church and an adjoining museum with artifacts dating back to the Bronze Age.
