This church, dated 1630, is located opposite Perast on an artificial islet built of stones piled up around a reef. Originally a simple chapel, it was enlarged in 1725 with the construction of an imposing sanctuary recognizable by its octagonal dome. All around the capitals inside the church, you can admire nearly 2,500 small silver squares, each decorated in an original way: it is the sailors who, on their return from a sea trip, used to engrave an ex-voto with their name on it to thank Our Lady of Rocks for having spared them the misfortunes of the sea. This escapade in the middle of the Boka is worth it, both for the beauty of a unique site and for the evocation of the many stories of sailors by the guides gravitating around the church.

It is exceptional to be found on this small island. Take the boat during 3/4 H to get there is already breathtaking. There is a communion between COASTAL MONTAGNE-MER-CIEL-VILLAGES. As far as the interior you have a very attractive chapel or you can see nearly 2,000 silver ex-votos out more beautiful than the others, we can take the time to watch tables (baroque paintings of the life of CHRIST AND MARIE) of KOKOLJA, wall paintings show scenes of old and new testament. There is also a small museum of local traditions. Stroll along the esplanade is Magique. Some photos.ALLEZ WITHOUT YOU TO ASK QUESTIONS THERE

Very pleasant excursion that allows you to visit this lovely small orthodox church stands in the middle of the water. The journey by boat passes close to the abbey Sveti Dorda but does not stop there.
