Dhërmi

Dhermi is one of Albania's most breathtaking coastal destinations, perched between the dramatic Ceraunian Mountains and the crystal-clear waters of the Ionian Sea. Split between a sun-drenched pebble beach and a quiet hilltop old town, it offers two experiences in one.

The Beach

Dhermi Beach is renowned for some of the clearest waters on the Albanian Riviera - ideal for swimming, snorkelling and relaxing on smooth pebbles under the Mediterranean sun. Just south, Drymades Beach draws visitors with its vibrant summer atmosphere and unforgettable sunsets over the Ionian.

The Old Village

The hilltop old town rewards those who venture uphill with sweeping panoramic views, centuries-old Orthodox churches and the Monastery of Saint Mary. The scenic Mills Trail, a walking path connecting the mountaintop to the shore, is one of the most rewarding short hikes on the Riviera.

Adventure & Hidden Gems

Beyond the beach, hidden coves, the Pirate's Cave and the wild Gjipe canyon are best explored by boat along the rugged coastline. For those who want to see it all from above, paragliding over the Ionian coast offers a perspective unlike anything else in Albania.
