Piles of Orjen on the west and Lovćen on the east encompass it. The narrowest segment, Verige strait, is just 300 m long. It has a shoreline of 107.3 km. Starting 2013, it could be crossed by a ferryboat, however Montenegro is wanting to manufacture a scaffold to compass the strait, the alleged Verige Bridge.

More often than not it is latent yet after overwhelming rain a wonderful waterfall seems 20 m over the Bay of Kotor.
