Saranda Guide

Saranda is a coastal city situated on the southern tip of Albania, resting on the west coast of Vlore County, bordering the Ionian Sea and Mediterranean Sea. The port is used as the gateway to Italy, with many crossings to Brindisi on the south-eastern coast of the Italian mainland.

What is there to do in Saranda?

Amidst the gradual rise of Eastern Europe’s touristic appeal, Saranda has kept itself under the radar from the attention of Western Europe’s holidaymakers. However, its relative anonymity is slowly beginning to change - an increasing number of travellers are becoming aware of Albania’s striking south coast; the collection of alluring bodies of water and enigmatic forestry intertwined between impressive pieces of architecture and fascinating historical sites has attracted many visitors from Tirana, longing to explore the naturally beautiful landscape.

A whole holiday could be spent witnessing the incredible ancient ruins scattered around the verdant city; the Synagogue Complex, Ancient City of Butrint and Saint Nicholas Monastery are the standout landmarks among a wealth of historical culture. For a refreshing change of pace, The Blue Eye is a spring of naturally fresh water surrounded by beautiful scenery. Many choose to while away a few hours amid the blissful surroundings.
