Guided tour

    • Explore the pirate cave of Haxhi Ali, a historic hideout linked to legends of Albania’s most famous seafarer.

    • Stop at the Blue Gem cave, where sunlight hits the water just right, creating shifting blue tones you’ll see only from inside.

    • Swim at hidden beaches along the Karaburun Peninsula, reachable only by boat and untouched by roads or resorts.

    • Visit up to seven quiet swim and snorkel spots chosen by local skippers.

    • Wide-open sea, caves, cliffs, and clear water make this coastline ideal for photos.
