Porto Palermo (route preview)

The essentials

Porto Palermo lies well beyond the 1-hour rental turnaround, but the run north out of Sarandë still delivers the opening kilometres of the Riviera. Ali Pasha's stone fortress sits on a low peninsula guarding a natural harbour.

Highlights

  • Full reach requires private charter, not rental
  • The Sarandë–Piqeras stretch is doable in an hour
  • Watch for ferry traffic near Sarandë harbour mouth

Michael's tip

"If Porto Palermo is your goal, book the boat tour; the jet ski is for the near coast."

For the record

The fortress was built in the early 1800s to control the Ionian shipping lane.
