Do you need a power adapter in Montenegro?
If you search for "stromadapter montenegro", you usually don't want a generic explanation — you want a clear recommendation. That's what I try to give here.
I live near the lake most of the year and have tried most of what you'll read here myself. Whatever I don't know, I say so.
Short answer
You can book on the spot, but in high season (June to August) the good skippers are often taken. Two or three days ahead via WhatsApp is usually enough.
Watch for honest promises on route and duration. If someone offers 'all monasteries in 90 minutes', it isn't realistic — the lake is bigger than the map suggests.
Detailed explanation
There are roughly three boat categories at Lake Skadar: shared speedboats (fast, cheap, from around €15 per person), private speedboats (individual routes, from around €150 per boat) and traditional wooden boats (slow, romantic, from around €120 for four hours).
Which option fits depends less on budget than on how you travel. As a couple, going private almost always pays off — the price is per boat, not per person.
