The island of Sveti Djordje is one of the two islets off the coast of Perast in the Boka Kotorska, the other being Gospa od Škrpjela. Unlike Gospa od Škrpjela, it is a natural island.
The island contains the Sveti Djordje monastery from the 12th century and the old graveyard for the old nobility from Perast and further from the whole Boka Kotorska. Deserted most of the year, and in July and August it is resting on the Catholic clergy. Tourists are not allowed to access. It is customary for ships to blow their horn when they pass the Island of Sveti Djordje.
