Mirište is a small cove near the tip of the Luštica peninsula, at the outer edge of the Bay of Kotor where the water turns properly clear and the coastline breaks up into rock, pine and pebble. It is a compact place, a beach with a few family houses and restaurants above it and boats pulled up or moored offshore, and it runs on a beach-day rhythm: into the water early, under a pine or an umbrella through the middle of the day, grilled fish or squid in the late afternoon.
What surrounds it is the draw. Žanjice, the broader pebble bay in its olive grove, is next door along the shore. Just offshore lies Mamula, the round Austro-Hungarian fortress island guarding the mouth of the bay, and boats from these coves make the short run to the Blue Cave, where midday light turns the water an improbable colour. Behind the beaches, Luštica is a landscape of dry-stone walls, old olive terraces and half-abandoned stone hamlets, with tracks that make good walking before the heat arrives. Getting anywhere else means either a drive along the peninsula or a boat across to Herceg Novi, which is precisely why the coves at this end stay as calm as they do.
