Discover Ksamil

Four uninhabited islands just offshore, some reachable on foot at low tide, are the town's signature attraction.

Clear, shallow water in shades of turquoise makes Ksamil one of the most photographed spots on the Albanian Riviera.

A UNESCO World Heritage site nearby with Greek, Roman and Venetian ruins layered across centuries.

Excursions to the Blue Eye spring and views across to Corfu, visible from the coast on clear days.

About 20 minutes south of Sarandë, reachable via Corfu Airport in Greece or a roughly 4-hour bus ride from Tirana.

Albanian is the official language. English and Greek are widely understood in this tourist area.

June to September for warm sea temperatures and reliable sunshine.

Only about 10 minutes by car, making it an easy half-day excursion from the beach.
