Getting There

  • Walking

    If you are in the Old Town of Kotor, start by heading towards the North Gate (the main entrance to the Old Town). From the North Gate, proceed straight along the main street, which is called Njegoševa. Continue walking until you reach the square called Trg od Oružja. Once there, take a right onto the street called Stari Grad. Keep walking straight, and after about 10 minutes, you will reach the waterfront area. The Port of Kotor is located directly along the water, and you will see the large ships docked there.

  • Taxi

    If you prefer not to walk, you can take a taxi. You can easily find taxis near popular spots in the Old Town, such as the main square. Just tell the driver you want to go to the Port of Kotor (Luka Kotor). The ride should take about 5-10 minutes, depending on traffic. The taxi will drop you off right at the entrance to the port area where you can enjoy the views of the harbor.

  • Public Transport

    While Kotor is a small town and public transport is limited, you might find local buses that can take you closer to the port area. If you are at the bus station in Kotor, look for buses heading towards the waterfront or the port. However, this option is generally less convenient since the bus routes may not run frequently and the port is quite close to the town center. Walking or taking a taxi is usually more efficient.
