Two young brother stand on the pier of Persat. Perast lies beneath the hill of St. Elijah (873 m), on a cape that separates the bay of Risan from that of Kotor, and overlooks the Verige strait, the narrowest part of the bay of Kotor. Near Perast there are two small islands: one is called St. George island, and the other called Gospa od Škrpjela (Our Lady of the Rock), and each has a picturesque chapel. Gospa od Škrpjela is particularly interesting given that it is the only artificially built island in the Adriatic, with an area of 3,030 m² — it was built upon a rock (Škrpjel) after two venetian sailors from Perast found a picture of the Virgin Mary on it in 1452.
