What a day on Katica is

Katica leaves the same quay every morning and comes home before evening. In between: the islands, forty minutes ashore at Gospa od Škrpjela, lunch cooked on the crossing, an hour or so in a town, and on some days a long swim. Nothing is hurried. That is the whole idea.

polakoadverb, Montenegrin
slowly, gently, without hurry. The way the bay is meant to be seen.

Every day takes a different route

Katica leaves from the same quay each morning. Where she goes depends on the day. Pick one and the route draws itself on the chart, stop by stop.

The shape of a day

The stops change with the day, the rhythm doesn't. Here is how the hours go by on Katica.

1

Boarding

From 10:00 at the Pine promenade, from 09:00 on Wednesday and Friday. Katica is the red and white boat in front of Hotel Astoria.

2

Under way

Two decks, shade below and sun on top. Once we are out of Tivat bay the galley starts on lunch.

3

The island

Forty minutes ashore at Gospa od Škrpjela, the church on the man-made island off Perast. Every route of the week stops here.

4

Lunch on board

Cooked during the crossing and served at the table, with dessert and a drink. Tell us when you book if someone in your group doesn't eat fish.

5

A town

Perast on some days, Kotor on others. Tuesday's hour and a half in Kotor is the longest stop of the week.

+

6

Home by evening

Seven moments, one day
1 / 7

Two decks, shade when you want it, sun when you don't

Katica takes a big group without ever feeling full. Lunch is cooked and served during the crossing, and there is always somewhere to sit down out of the heat.

  • Lunch cooked on board

    Prepared while Katica crosses the bay and served at the table, with dessert and a drink.

  • Room for a big group

    Families, friends, whole agency groups. There is always a place to sit, and a place to be alone with the view.

  • Pay on board

    Nothing is charged online. Cash or card once you are on the boat, the same price every day.

Lunch, dessert and a drink

Cooked on the crossing, served at the table

Lunch is part of the day, not a stop for it. It goes on the stove once Katica is under way and comes to the table while the bay goes past the windows. Dessert and a drink come with it.

Lunch is fish. If anyone in your group doesn't eat it, say so when you book and we'll sort something out for them.
