The Sunday market at Risan is worth a visit to stock up on fruit and veg, local honeys and olive oil. It's in the small square where you can have a beer before heading back.

Sightseeing
A boat (€5-10 return) will take you to the two picture postcards islands islands of Sveti Ðorđe & Gospa od Škrpjela just offshore from Perast. Our Lady of the Rocks is an island artificially created in the 15th century around a rock where an image of the Madonna was found. The church is beautiful, with sumptuous paintings, hundreds of silver votives tablets and a curious little museum including a Madonna and Child picture, embroidered with the hair of a heart broken woman spent 25 years making it whilst waiting for a lover to come home.
