Kotor, Montenegro

After leaving Budva, we sailed to a small swimming bay just before the entrance to the bay of Kotor. The place is called Bigova. The main attraction was an old yacht that had roots there in the bay with two kittens living on board.

After a nice lunch break, we sailed to Kotor.

The bay of Kotor is probably the most impressive bay I've ever seen. The bay is deep with dark blue water and 1000m mountains surrounding it. We made our way around in the bay, with full sails up, till we made it to Kotor.
Rounding one of the corners, we crossed the largest sailing ship in the world - the Royal Clipper. I'll post our pictures soon. In the meantime you can see her

Compared to Budva, Kotor is much nicer, and even with all the tourists around here, staying on the town quay is more quiet than the marina of Budva.

Tomorrow, we're planning to rent a car and go up the mountains for a couple days.
