Kroreza Beach by boat from Saranda: White sand & clear water

Eight hours to a beach surrounded by high rocky hills, reachable only by boat

An eight-hour boat tour from Saranda to Kroreza Beach on the Albanian Riviera, a 500-meter stretch of white sand backed by rolling hills and bordered by clear water, reached only by boat or on foot. Private transportation and an English-speaking guide are included. The beach sits a few miles south of the city, cut off by high rocky cliffs on all sides. Lunch, coffee and dinner are not part of the package.

The experience

Kroreza Beach exists in near isolation on the Albanian Riviera: surrounded by high rocky hills on all sides and reachable only by boat or a hiking path, which is why most visitors arrive by water. The eight-hour tour departs from Saranda with private transportation and a guide who speaks English, taking you down the coast past Kakome Bay to the beach itself. The sand is white, the water is clear enough to see through, and the setting feels untouched because few people can reach it.

The boat is the only way most travelers get there, and the journey itself frames what makes this beach different from the crowded stretches closer to town. You spend the day on the water and on sand that has no vendors, no loungers, no infrastructure. Just the beach, the hills, and the people who came by boat to see it. An English-speaking guide travels with you, so you learn the geography and the history of the coastline as you move along it.

What’s included

• Private transportation from Saranda.
