Is the coastal road from Kotor to Mrčevac defiant?
Driving this road along (really close) the shoreline of Boka Kotorska (Bay of Kotor) is not for the faint at heart. The road often narrows to a single lane, so be careful when passing other cars - you may need to tuck into a driveway or back up to let someone pass. The road is very narrow (one lane in many places) and drops right off the edge into the water in many places (with no guard rails). It runs and is quite nerve wracking. You will have to stop and back up to let cars pass and other times had to pull into driveways to let cars pass by.
