In short
Chartering a yacht in Montenegro, with your own crew
A Montenegro yacht charter is a private crewed voyage, usually 5 to 10 days long. A week typically costs around €55,000 plus expenses, with most yachts between €35,000 and €100,000 and superyachts above €500,000. The classic route covers the Bay of Kotor, Perast, Budva and Sveti Stefan, often combined with Dubrovnik. Navélia sends three available yachts for your dates in about 10 minutes.
Why Montenegro
Montenegro has the most dramatic arrival in the Mediterranean. The Bay of Kotor winds almost thirty kilometres inland between mountains that rise more than a thousand metres from the water, with Venetian towns on the shore and two small islands in front of Perast.
Porto Montenegro in Tivat is the base: a full service superyacht marina with berths up to 250 metres, five minutes from Tivat airport and less than an hour from Dubrovnik. Outside the bay the coast runs south past the Luštica peninsula and its blue cave to the old town of Budva and the island village of Sveti Stefan.
