We stop for a photo break at a place where you can see the magnificent Sveti Stefan from above, panoramically, after the expropriation of an island that was a fishing settlement many years ago and its later sale to a Singaporean hotel chain, which brought it into tourism through restoration work. Sveti Stefan Island, a village protected by walls in the 15th century and a fishing town until the 1950s, became a favorite destination of celebrities such as Sophia Loren, Marilyn Monroe, and Liz Taylor in the 60s, 70s, and 80s.
