Monastery of Saint Naum - The Church of St. Naum, dating back to the 10th century, was the first hospital in the region, established by St. Naum. Although the church has been rebuilt over the centuries, St. Naum’s grave remains original, and legend has it that his heartbeat can still be heard from the grave.
The area also features the springs of “Crn Drim,” a natural attraction with crystal-clear water flowing from Lake Prespa under Mount Galichica. Visitors can enjoy tours through the springs on small rowing boats. Additionally, there are delightful restaurants and a beach area for swimming and sunbathing by the lake.

Inexpensive way to see the lake and the monastery - Nice way to spend a day. The Naum monastery is particularly interesting because the headwaters of the spring that feeds the lake are here. Inexpensive and this boat was far less crowded than the other large boat. Pleasant crew. Very clear on what time the boat would leave at each location.

Very nice trip - It was a wonderful boat trip. We loved the view. Staff was super nice and everything was on time.
Be aware that this is a boat tour only, no guide. This is why we booked it.

A trip well worth doing on this boat - Booked this trip as the boat seemed so much more spacious than the others doing the same excursion.We had a wonderful day stopping off at the Bay of Bones for 30 mins and then onto St Naum monastery for 3hrs where we also paid and took a shared boat ride on the natural springs before having lunch.The crew were attentive,bar well stocked and the boat extremely comfortable,it was also a lot cheaper than the same trip Tui were plugging.A great day out!

Must Do - Really amazing, friendly staff and great value!
You get enough time at each location to explore, without feeling rushed, great bar menu on the boat too!
Defiantly worth going on the rowing boats when you get to St.Naum!
Beautiful place, great views from the boat also, you should go on this trip!

Wonderful relaxing boat trip - Nice boat trip on the lake, with comfortable seating for just 60 people around edges of the boat on the top deck. (£21 with entrance fees Much Cheaper than Alexandria boat, (£43) that has 150 - 200 or so people, crushed together in rows on top deck.
Plenty of discreet staff to look after your needs. 20 minute stop at Bay of Bones medieval village, enough time to look around
We had a three hour stop at the monastery and Naum island. Giving plenty time to see the monastery with its peacocks. Eat lunch, go on the beach, swim in the lake or relax in the sun. Don’t miss the 5€ boat ride on the springs. It’s interesting and you get a good 30 minutes leisurely ride. The boat trip back to Ohrid is very picturesque.

Pleasant atmosphere - We took the trip from Ohrid to St. Naum via the Bay of Bones (€20 per person). The other boats on the dock (€15 per person) were extremely crowded with seating across the decks as if a bus service and did not look very comfortable.
This vessel was relaxed with seating around the sides of the boat and a bar by the bow.
The staff were very friendly and tidied up as we went along. The toilets were very clean.
The trip cast off was at 10:15 and return was at 15:15 prompt docking in Ohrid at 16:30. There was a half hour at the Bay of Bones on route. A recreation of a prehistoric settlement, that was a gathering of Wicker huts. In St Naum we had just under three hours. That was more than enough time.
Overall it was a relaxingly pleasant day out.

Relaxing Boat Trip to a Beautiful Place - Great value for money. The monastery is lovely, definitely worth the visit. We spent 4hrs there which was plenty of time to explore, take a boat ride around the springs (5€ per person), grab some lunch and go for a quick swim in the lake. The boat is lovely and comfortable with plenty of seating and an onboard bar. WiFi and clean toilets onboard were great. The only downside of our trip was that we did not stop in the Bay of Bones as advertised. We assume there was a reason for this but we weren’t told anything so communication could have been improved.
