Dhërmi Beach

Plazhi i Dhërmiut

One of the most famous beaches on the Albanian Riviera, with white pebbles, bright blue water and the old white village of Dhërmi on the hillside behind.

Dhërmi is the most popular beach on the northern stretch of the Albanian Riviera. A long strip of white pebbles meets the clear Ionian Sea, where the water shifts from light blue to deep blue. Behind it, on the hillside, lie the old stone houses of Dhërmi village and several small Orthodox chapels. In summer, the beach is packed with bars, sun loungers (about €10–20 per set) and nightclubs, though there is also a free public section. To the north, Drymades Beach is longer and quieter. From Vlorë, it takes about 1 hour and 20 minutes by car over the Llogara Pass, and minibuses run in summer.
