⛪ Our Lady of the Rocks - The Floating Gem of Montenegro✨

⛪ Our Lady of the Rocks — The Floating Gem of Montenegro Located in the Bay of Kotor near the town of Perast, Our Lady of the Rocks is one of Montenegro’s most iconic landmarks. You can reach it by a short boat ride (about 5–10 minutes) from Perast — boats depart regularly during the day. The island is entirely man-made, built stone by stone over centuries. 🌊 What to See & Do Visit the beautiful church with its blue dome, explore the small museum inside, and learn the legend of sailors who created the island after finding an icon of the Virgin Mary. The surrounding views of the bay and nearby mountains are breathtaking — it’s one of the most photogenic spots on the Adriatic. ☕ Food, Shopping & Pro Tips After visiting, enjoy lunch at one of Perast’s waterfront restaurants — fresh seafood and local wine are a must. Bring cash for the entrance fee (around €2–3) and a hat or sunscreen, as there’s little shade on the island. The best time to visit is early morning or just before sunset for calm waters and soft golden light. #historicallandmarks #montenegrotravel #localguides
