Itinerary

1. Lesendro is a peninsula and fortress on Skadar lake, located near the village Vranjina. The fortress was built in the 18th century. It is located on the peninsula that was an island until the construction of the Belgrade - Bar railway line. During the reign of Bishop Peter II Petrović-Njegoš, it served as a defense against Turkish attacks. Tour plan: Departure is from Virpazar. Cruising begins through a beautiful little channel surrounded by various plants and birds, after which we come to a bigger part of the lake. By boat we pass under the bridge which is part of the main road Podgorica – Bar. Lesendro is located just behind the bridge. Just after Lesendro, we are cruising through bird reservation and narrow channels surrounded by water lilies, reeds and water nuts, as well as cruising through river Moraca. After that you will see big and small Cakovica islands where we will make a break for swimming - we call it wild swimming. After swimming we will go back to Virpazar.

• 5What a fantastic,...

  What a fantastic, relaxing boat trip with Ivona and Mitar! We got stuck in traffic so arrived late, but the team were super understanding and flexible with our start time which was much appreciated. The boat and the lake were both beautiful, saw lots of different birds and even a water snake! The swim was very refreshing but not too cold. A great way to spend a couple of hours. Thank you!

About Podgorica

Podgorica is the capital of Montenegro, a compact city of bridges, rivers and Ottoman quarters, close to Lake Skadar and the mountains.

Podgorica stands on a plain where the Morača and Ribnica rivers meet, ringed by mountains, and it is the political and commercial capital of Montenegro. Much of the city was rebuilt after the Second World War, and it was called Titograd from 1946 to 1992. The old Ottoman quarter, Stara Varoš, keeps a clock tower and a small mosque, the Millennium Bridge crosses the Morača, and the large Orthodox Cathedral of the Resurrection of Christ is one of the city's best-known buildings.
