An overnight yacht charter in Montenegro costs €3,400 per day from two days onward: €6,800 for two days with one night, €10,200 for three days with two. Six guests sleep aboard in four cabins, against sixteen on a day charter. What changes is more than the headcount: the whole bay gets covered, the morning on the water starts before the tour boats arrive, and the evening ends wherever you dropped anchor.
Why sixteen by day and six by night
It is the most common question and the answer is short: four cabins, which means six berths. During the day there is room for all sixteen — foredeck sunpad, cockpit, flybridge. At night what counts is bunks, not square metres.
More could technically be squeezed in, and some operators do. We do not: by the second morning the difference between "we fitted" and "we slept" becomes the only thing anyone talks about.
The two-day route
Day one, the bay. Out of Porto Montenegro to Our Lady of the Rocks, Perast and Kotor old town. Toward evening the boat moves to a secluded bay: dinner on deck and a night with no neighbours.
Day two, west and open sea. The Blue Cave at peak light, meaning between 11:00 and 12:00, then Mamula island, Blue Horizon beach, the Almara Beach Club and back to Porto Montenegro.
The real advantage of two days is that both routes — eastern and western — fit into one trip. On a day charter you have to pick one, because they run in opposite directions from Tivat.
The three-day route
Day one, the fjord. Porto Montenegro, Perast and Our Lady of the Rocks, Kotor. Evening at anchor in Kotor bay with dinner on deck under the mountain walls.
Day two, the long one. The Blue Cave at midday, Mamula, Dobreč beach with hammocks and seafood, sunset dinner at Bigova, another night at anchor.
Day three, the beach. The sand at Blue Horizon, cocktails at Almara Beach Club and an unhurried run home.
The third day adds the one thing two days cannot hold: time to not hurry. That is where the hammocks, the long lunches and the second swim in the same cove come from.
Where the night is spent
Two options, decided in the evening according to the weather.
At anchor in a bay. Quieter, darker, nobody around. You wake up among mountains with a couple of hours before the first tour boat appears.
In a marina. Herceg Novi, Luštica and Porto Novi are on the route. Chosen when you want to step ashore in the evening or when the weather does not suit lying at anchor. Port fees at other marinas are counted separately; at Porto Montenegro there are none, since it is our home berth.
What is aboard when the day does not end at sunset
Two bathrooms with hot showers, and fresh water topped up every morning. Towels, ice, water and fruit are already laid out, and the crew is aboard around the clock.
For the water: paddleboards, snorkelling masks, an underwater scooter, inflatable loungers. The stern grill works in the evening too — fish and prawns cook at anchor, and oysters can be ordered from the water at Kamenari and brought out to the boat.
A private chef (€300), a photographer (€200) and celebration decor (€150) are ordered separately. The chef appears more often on multi-day charters than on day ones: three breakfasts and two dinners in a row is a different proposition from a single lunch.
Who it suits and who it does not
It suits a group of up to six with two clear days and the wish to see the coast whole rather than in pieces.
It does not suit eight or more: there is nowhere for them to sleep, and the daytime capacity does not help here. In that case take a full day on the water — at €3,000 for eight hours a group of any size up to sixteen has room to spare.

Frequently asked questions
Six, in four cabins. By day the yacht takes up to sixteen guests, but there are six berths and we do not stretch that: more could technically be squeezed in, and it would be a different trip. Tell us children's ages when booking.
€3,400 per day from two days onward. Two days with one night is €6,800; three days with two nights is €10,200. Crew, fuel within the route, insurance, water gear and the Porto Montenegro berth are all inside that figure.
At anchor in a quiet bay, or in a marina — the weather decides, and so does how you want the evening to end. Herceg Novi, Luštica and Porto Novi are on the route. Port fees at other marinas are counted separately.
Yes, two bathrooms with hot showers. Fresh water is topped up every morning, so the second and third days are no different from the first. Towels, ice, water and fruit are already aboard.
