Albanian Riviera Speedboat Tour from Vlore
This speedboat tour from Vlore suits travelers interested in exploring Albania’s coastal nature and history, including Sazan Island and nearby natural sites.
Description
Start your tour at Vlore port and board a speedboat crossing the Adriatic and Ionian seas. The first stop is Sazan Island, once a secret military base. You'll have free time to explore the island’s abandoned bunkers, natural landscapes, and unique scenery where the two seas converge.
Next, visit Devil’s Throat Canyon, a narrow canyon surrounded by cliffs and emerald waters. The dramatic setting offers excellent photo opportunities and a chance to explore one of Albania’s distinctive natural formations.
The tour continues to Haxhi Ali Cave, Albania’s largest sea cave. Local legend says the pirate Haxhi Ali once used this cave. Inside, sunlight reflecting off the deep blue water creates a memorable natural spectacle.
Then, reach Saint Jani Beach, accessible only by boat. Swim in clear waters, relax on the quiet shore, and avoid crowded areas. The final stop is Saint Vasil Bay, a short walk from Saint Jani Beach.
