Visiting Montenegro is a chance to discover a different culture that lies within an easy drive from Dubrovnik. Start in the baroque gem of Perast, once home to many captains. Sail out to a small artificial island, Our Lady of the Rock that holds revered icon of Our Lady with a Child. Then visit Kotor, the gem of Boka Bay, a medieval town crisscrossed by wavering stone alleys and towered by mighty stone walls offering breath-taking panoramas. Visit Budva, a charming historic settlement on a small peninsula. Driving back to Dubrvnik, consider some world-class shopping at Porto Montenegro, the region's most luxurious marina.
