Theodor's Bay
Theodor’s Bay – or Gjiri i Teodorit in Albanian – is located between Dhërmi Beach and near the Pirate’s Cave. Surrounded by large natural rocks, the bay has a unique and almost mystical atmosphere.
This small bay is incredibly beautiful, with the deep blue sea and white pebbles shining under the sunlight, creating a scene shaped by nature itself.
Theodor’s Bay offers a sense of peace and the desire to explore more, making it one of the most attractive destinations for both local and international visitors.
Pirates' Cave
The Pirates’ Cave on the coast of Dhërmi creates the feeling of stepping back in time. Its steep rock walls and narrow interior spark the imagination about what may once have been hidden there by sea pirates who used the cave as shelter and protection.
It is located near the beaches of Dhërmi, along a rugged rocky coastline that drops sharply into the sea, and close to the Monastery of Saint Theodor. This setting adds even more character, history, and beauty to this fascinating part of the Albanian coast.
Monastery's Caves
A complex of sea caves near Theodor Bay and the Pirates’ Cave, known for their striking rock formations and the play of light on the water. These caves create a mysterious atmosphere and are perfect for exploration by kayak or swimming in clear, deep waters.
Gjipe
Gjipe is a breathtaking destination where steep cliffs rise above clear, transparent blue waters, connected by a small beach below. It is a true treasure for those who love the sea and natural beauty.
Located between Vuno and Ilias, two small villages in southern Albania not far from the famous beach of Dhërmi, Gjipe is one of the most remarkable coastal spots in the region. Its name is said to come from the phrase “Bay of God.”
Pigeons' Cave
Pigeons’ Cave is one of the most unique natural wonders in southern Albania. Located near Gjipe, on the shores of the Ionian Sea, this cave attracts visitors seeking both adventure and peace in nature.
It is an ideal destination for those who want to explore wild landscapes and enjoy spectacular views. With its special atmosphere and mystical feeling, the cave combines natural beauty with history, offering a unique and unforgettable experience for every visitor.
* Guests can choose to stay at Gjipe or Pigeons’ Cave for beach time. They may choose a direct round trip or stay at the beach for a selected amount of time.

Important Notes for This Tour
This group tour includes a panoramic boat visit to all locations on the itinerary. At each stop, we approach by boat for a short visit, perfect for sightseeing and photos.
Guests can choose one beach stop at either Gjipe Bay or Pigeons’ Cave for swimming and relaxing. Those who do not wish to stay at the beach may return directly to the departure point. We recommend bringing snacks, drinks, umbrellas, or anything else you may need.
This is a scenic and enjoyable experience, with boat visits offering the best way to admire these locations, as the rocky terrain makes land access difficult in some areas.
Requests to visit destinations beyond Pigeons’ Cave must be arranged in advance, subject to availability and additional pricing. Payment for optional extras is made in cash at departure.
