Perast

Perast is an old town on the Bay of Kotor in Montenegro. The Gulf of Kotor (Boka Kotorska) cuts deeply into the coastline of the southern part of the Adriatic sea, creating four spectacular bays ringed in mountains, the “fjords” of the Mediterranean. The little town of Perast is situated at the foot of St. Elijah Hill (873 m), opposite the narrow Verige strait, where the innermost bays of Risan and Kotor converge.
