Karaburun in Albania - a must-visit!

Hi everyone,

I just got back from a 10-day trip to Albania, and I wanted to share a great discovery for those looking for spots still untouched by mass tourism: the Karaburun peninsula.

It’s a pretty wild area, with impressive cliffs, coves only accessible by boat, and water in an incredible shade of blue. It’s easy to get there from Vlora, by water taxi or on an excursion.

For accommodation, we preferred staying in Vlora itself, which makes it easy to explore the region without moving around too much.

I put together a little practical guide for those interested (with info on access, beaches, boat tips, etc.): 👉 Karaburun

If you’ve also visited the area or have other little-known spots to recommend in the region, I’d love to hear about them! 😊

I didn’t explore the coast much after spending a night in Ksamil (and that was off-season!) I did find a pretty wild spot northwest of Vlora though—total solitude after a sandy track (apart from a couple of camper vans). Beach (plazh) Dalan at Zvërnec. Weird rock formations right by the sea... PS: Your link (Karaburun) isn’t working.
