Virpazar
Virpazar is the village every boat tour starts from — a cluster of stone houses around an old Ottoman bridge, with the marina, restaurants and the National Park office all within a two-minute walk of each other.

Getting there
35 minutes from Podgorica or Bar by car on the highway. The train Bar–Podgorica stops in Virpazar; the walk from the station to the marina is under 5 minutes.
Want the most authentic experience?
A 4-hour private ride on a real Montenegrin wooden boat, leaving from tiny Poseljani instead of the crowded Virpazar dock.
