This hidden gem offers a perfect blend of history, nature, and stunning sea views, making it an ideal destination for travelers seeking adventure and cultural discovery.
Visit the Rodoni Castle – Step back in time as you explore the ruins of this 15th-century fortress built by Albania’s national hero, Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg.
