Porto Montenegro, Luštica Bay and Portonovi are new build marinas in Montenegro and indicators of how much we are focused on developing yachting industry in last several years.

Boka Bay is the most popular sailing destination in Montenegro. With a significant growth in traffic during summer season, we also have growth in security measurements. Vessels are controlled on daily basses by Coast Guard and Harbor Master Office representatives.

If you are planning to visit Boka Bay marinas (Porto Montenegro-Tivat, Marina Kotor, Marina Risan, Port Zelenika, Marina Herceg Novi) it is mandatory to have vignette (permit for sailing), and you have to pay attention to the speed limit for sailing Boka Bay.
Vignette for foreign vessels is necessary to obtain in first Harbor Masters Office or Branch Offices after you enter Montenegro territorial waters. Vignette is necessary to be on display. The easiest way to obtain a vignette is to contact Yacht Agent Montenegro


For all vessels sailing Boka Bay speed limit is 10 knots, and while in Kumbor strait (channel) and the strait of Verige speed limit is 6 knots. These speed limits are mandatory for all vessels: cruisers, mega yachts, yachts, speed boats, boats, ski-jets, sail boats, catamarans, trimarans, etc.

Yours truly,
