Ksamil Islands from Sarandë

The essentials

The Ksamil archipelago sits roughly 17 km south of Sarandë, a cluster of four low islands ringed with white sand and shallow turquoise water. On the hour rental you can idle past all four, cut the engine, and drift.

Highlights

• Roughly 25 minutes each way at cruising pace
• Shallow sandbanks between the two closest islands
• Butrint lagoon opens to the south from here
