Two countries, one coastline, and a border you cross by sea.
South from Dubrovnik the coast changes character entirely. The Bay of Kotor is not a bay at all but a drowned river canyon, mountains falling three thousand feet straight into black water, with Venetian towns folded into the creases. It is the most dramatic sailing in the Adriatic and almost nobody in the charter fleet goes there, because it needs a border crossing and a skipper who has done it before.
The week runs south through the Elaphiti islands and Dubrovnik, clears into Montenegro, spends three days in Kotor and Perast and the empty anchorages beyond, and comes back the way the traders did.
Bring your passport. That is the only complication, and we handle the rest.
