Experience Overview

Sail from Saranda on a pirate ship and discover Kakome, Krorez and Roidhes bays.
Enjoy multiple swimming stops, coastal views and a relaxed day on the Ionian Sea, with optional lunch available onboard.

Trip Details

Enjoy a relaxed and fun day at sea aboard a pirate-style boat as you explore some of the most beautiful bays along the Albanian Riviera. The tour starts in Saranda, where you’ll meet the crew at the main pier along the city boulevard and board the pirate ship before setting sail along the Ionian coast.

Departing in the morning, you’ll cruise away from Saranda with open views of the coastline and the deep blue Ionian Sea. The first stop is near Cape Qefali, where the boat slows down to enjoy panoramic views and give you time to take photos of the rugged coast and surrounding sea.

From there, the ship continues toward Kakome Bay, a calm and secluded bay known for its crystal-clear water. The boat anchors here for a swimming stop, giving you time to cool off, float in the sea, or relax onboard away from busy beaches. The journey then continues to Krorez Bay, another beautiful stop where you can swim, sunbathe, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

During the cruise, you’ll have time to relax on deck, enjoy the sea breeze, and take in the coastline from the water. An optional lunch is available during the day and can be arranged in advance if requested. At some point, you may notice that swimming from a pirate ship makes you feel slightly cooler than you expected — even if there’s no actual treasure involved.

Later in the afternoon, the boat sails toward Roidhes Bay for a final swimming stop, offering one last chance to enjoy the clear Ionian waters. As the day winds down, you’ll sail back toward Saranda, arriving at the dock in the early evening after a full day of swimming, views and relaxed time at sea.

Practical info:
Meeting point is at the main pier along the Saranda boulevard; exact details will be shared in advance. Departure is around 10:00 and return is around 17:30. Bring swimwear, a towel, sunscreen, and cash if you wish to add lunch ( different options on board and in the beaches we will stop from 15-20 euro) you can bring snack :). The itinerary may be adjusted depending on sea conditions for safety.

The views were stunning throughout the day. I just wish we had a guide giving a bit more information about each stop.

Fun day, slight delay returning

We had a really fun time and loved the hidden beaches. The boat got back a little later than planned, but it didn’t ruin the overall experience. Still worth it!
