Karaburun & Sazan Marine Park: What to Expect by Yacht
Sea caves, marine-park coves and crystal water on Albania's wildest peninsula — a yacht day from Vlorë.
The Karaburun Peninsula and Sazan Island form one of the Mediterranean's last genuinely wild coastlines — accessible primarily by boat. A private yacht day from Vlorë or Orikum unlocks Haxhi Ali's sea cave, secluded bays and snorkelling in marine-park waters.
Route highlights
Typical itineraries include Marina Orikum, Shën Vasili Bay, Shën Jan Bay and the dramatic entrance to Haxhi Ali's Cave. Each stop offers swimming in glass-clear water framed by limestone cliffs. See our dedicated [Karaburun Escape route](/destinations/karaburun-escape).
Best yacht and season
May through September offers the calmest conditions. The Ferretti 39 is perfectly matched to this day route. [Check fleet availability](/yachts-for-charter) or [enquire for a tailored quote](/contact).
