Step aboard for a slow-paced, soul-soothing boat tour across Skadar Lake. Begin your journey along the winding River Crmnica from the town of Virpazar, where the channels open into vast waters bordered by mountains.
Glide beneath a historic railway bridge as you pass the legendary 18th-century Lesendro Fortress. Your guide Ivana will share stories of the region's history, culture, and wildlife, adding layers of meaning to every sight you see.
Next, cruise past the island of Vranjina and into a peaceful bird sanctuary. Keep an eye out for crested grebes, cormorants, grey herons, and other local and migratory species. You'll pass through small reed-lined canals before reaching a stunning expanse of Skadar Lake, covered in water lilies and lotus flowers, a breathtaking view that changes with the seasons.
Relax as you listen to the chirping of birds and the gentle lapping of water, with a glass of local wine or juice in hand. Weather permitting, you can take a dip in the lake’s pristine waters. Your journey also takes you near the wild islands of Mala and Velika Cakovica and Kamenik, each offering a unique view of this protected natural wonder.
This is more than a bird-watching tour, it’s an invitation to slow down, connect with nature, and leave the modern world behind.
