Sveti Marko Island is a small, uninhabited island in the Bay of Kotor, near the town of Tivat. Covered in Mediterranean vegetation and surrounded by crystal-clear waters, it offers a peaceful escape from the mainland crowds. The island has no permanent structures, just a few remnants of a former resort, making it ideal for swimming, sunbathing, and picnicking. Boat trips from Tivat, Kotor, or Perast frequently stop here, allowing visitors to explore the shoreline and relax on its pebble beaches. Its unspoiled character and quiet coves make it a favorite spot for nature lovers.
