Plava špilja, Natural sea cave in Lustica peninsula, Montenegro.
The Plava spilja cave features two entrances at different angles, with the largest measuring 15 meters wide and 3 meters high at the south-west side.
Local fishermen discovered this maritime geological formation in the late 19th century, leading to its recognition as a natural monument of Montenegro.
The cave holds importance for regional maritime traditions, serving as a shelter point for generations of Mediterranean fishing communities.
Access to the cave requires a boat journey from nearby ports, with optimal visiting hours between 10 AM and 4 PM for the best lighting conditions.
The afternoon sun creates a luminous blue reflection through the cave's openings, illuminating the water surface across its 300 square meter interior space.
