Great experience, despite big waves always felt safe. The beach in Karaburun is overrated and people should take their garbage with them - would rather have explored Sazan longer In summer it would probably be too crowded for me
A must during a stay in Vlorä!

Superb boat tour from Vlora to Sazan Island with 3 stops: 1) Beach on Sazan Island (30 minutes) 2) Cave of Ali Haxhi (10 minutes) 3) Beach off the island (2 hours) We enjoyed the passage in the cave which is spectacular. The pebble beaches are nice and clean with crystal clear water where we can see some fish and corals (snorkeling equipment is provided during the last stage). Leti is an experienced driver who handles the outboard well: he masters speed and turns to perfection which made our ride very entertaining. The tour started at 9.30am and we were back in Vlora at 2pm, which left us all afternoon to visit Vlora and enjoy its sandy beach. We recommend this 30€ tour per adult when visiting Vlora.

Had a very nice trip. The water was fairly rough this day, but that made it just a little extra. Cozy music on board and a drink, great day! Only the eateries on Karaburun were downright bad. Don't eat there, you'd better bring your own. That was a shame.

A very nice trip with the family. Highly recommended especially if traveling with teenagers. The boat trip is quite fast and fast-paced. Good boat driver who could maneuver through the waves.
We recommend the excursion!

Overall, everything went well. We had fun and were happy of the experience. The boats are very fast and we feel safe. We were a bit tight at the front. 2 points for improvement: we waited 45 minutes for a group of latecomers and that's not normal. Perhaps it should be better to meet people at the peer. We can park closer of the final destination. You should organize the boats according to sound level: young people with loud music, families with lower sound levels - young children don't like loud music. A general comment: the private beach isn't great and mattresses are expensive at 2000 lek.
Great experience

A beautiful 5h excursion to discover Sazan Island, beaches and Haxhi Ali cave. An activity to do if you want to get out of the city of Vlore and walk on the sea and discover remote places that you would not have seen without the excursion! Ali was a very good pilot and guide on the excursion!
