Gjipe Beach

Ενημερώθηκε 2026Ελέγχθηκε επιτόπουBetween Dhërmi and Himarë

A hidden cove at the mouth of a dramatic canyon between Dhërmi and Himarë, backed by tall pale cliffs and reached only by boat or on foot down the gorge. One of the Albanian Riviera's most striking beaches, with clear turquoise water and a wild, undeveloped feel.

Ιστορία

Πώς δημιουργήθηκε

Gjipe sits where a deep canyon cut through the Ceraunian range opens onto the Ionian Sea. The gorge and the pale cliffs framing the beach were carved by water over long ages, leaving a sheltered cove that stayed hard to reach and largely undeveloped — today a favourite for campers, hikers and boat trips along the coast.

Τι θα δείτε

Σε μια επίσκεψη

The setting is the draw: a curve of pebble and sand between high cliffs, exceptionally clear water for swimming and snorkelling, and the canyon behind the beach that you can walk up into. It's a popular spot for wild camping and for boats stopping along the coast.

Πώς να επισκεφθείτε

No road reaches the beach. Walk in down the canyon trail — around half an hour from the parking area off the SH8 — or come by boat or water taxi from Dhërmi or Himarë in summer.

Καλύτερη ώρα

June to September; go early to beat the midday sun on the exposed trail, and take water.

Καλό να ξέρετε

Either walk down the canyon trail — roughly half an hour from the parking area off the coast road — or take a boat or water taxi from Dhërmi or Himarë in summer. There is no road to the beach itself.

Gjipe is one of the Riviera's best-known spots for wild camping, and there is basic seasonal food and drink on the beach. Come prepared and take your rubbish out with you.
