The 60-passenger hybrid ship Gracijana will start operating on the route Tivat-Herceg Novi on Tuesday, as said from the company Bella Boka.
The company said the transfer from Tivat to Herceg Novi would take up to 25 minutes.
"The first departure by Gracijana hybrid ship, which can accommodate up to 60 passengers, is scheduled for Tuesday at 8 a.m. from Tivat to Herceg Novi. The route will run five times a day in both directions,” as said from Bella Boka.
As they stated, the first departure from Tivat, from Pine, to Herceg Novi will be every day at 8.30 a.m., and the next ones are at 12 p.m., 3.30 p.m., 7 p.m., and 10.30 p.m.
“From Herceg Novi to Tivat, the starting station will be the City port, and departure times are at 9.15 a.m., 12.45 p.m., 4.15 p.m., 7.45 p.m. and 11.15 p.m. The price per ticket on that line will be four euros in one direction, "the statement said.

In addition to the hybrid Gracijana, the solar barge Elettra, with a capacity of up to 30 passengers, will sail through Boka bay on Tuesday, operating seven times a day on the line Kotor-Prcanj-Donji Stoliv-Perast.
Eco ships Graciana and Elettra
According to Bella Boka, the price of the ticket from Kotor to Perast is 3.5 euros, and on individual routes from one to 1.5 euros.
"Bella Boka is a unique project, not only in Montenegro but also in the Mediterranean," the statement said.
Bella Boka said that, in addition to Gracijana and Elettra, they expect at least four more eco-boats to sail through Boka from next season, thus greatly reducing road traffic and reducing dangerous gas emissions in the Bay.
Solar catamaran
The residents of Boka and tourists were not able to use public transport in the Bay for a long time, they said.
The company Bella Boka said that clean Boka Bay is their mission and goal.
"In addition to ships for transport, one boat will be in charge of cleaning the bay from plastic waste," the company said.
