Best of Skadar Lake in one day - picturesque Virpazar with boat tour across the largest lake on the Balkans!
Lake Skadar still remains off the beaten track for many visitors to Montenegro, but if you do visit it - you'll be richly rewarded. Skadar Lake is the largest lake on the Balkan Peninsula, with fresh water and one of the largest national parks in Montenegro. In just one day you'll get the opportunity experience breathtaking landscapes of National Park Skadar Lake by boat, learn about Europe's largest bird reserve andexplore the idyllic town Virpazar.
You can join this tour from Herceg Novi, Kotor or Budva (links for exact location are in the description below).
We start our trip from Herceg Novi through Kotor and Budva towards Virpazar. On arrival to Virpazar, we head to the port of Skadar Lake, the biggest lake on Balkan peninsula, where we take a 2-hour boat ride. Skadar Lake is famous for being Europe's largest bird reserve, the last remaining breeding ground of the endangered Dalmatian Pelican and Pygmy Cormorant. It is also a key resting place for birds migrating from northern Europe to Africa.
After the boat tour, you will have free time (1 hour) to explore Virpazar - the "center" of Skadar Lake National Park. We take a short walk and you have the additional opportunity to visit Besac Fortress, built by the Turks in 1478. or have lunch in one of the restaurants by the shore. Besac Fortress is a cultural and historical site of exceptional importance and one of the most attractive lookouts on Skadar Lake.
