Sazan island

Sazan Island is Albania's largest island, at the mouth of the Bay of Vlorë, and these articles cover visiting it along with Vlora and the southern coast. Once a closed military base, it is now visited by boat from Vlorë, usually together with the clear water and caves of the Karaburun peninsula. Our guides include a feature on Sazan itself, two guides to Vlora covering its old town, beaches and sights, and a journey along the Ionian coast of southern Albania. A summer piece on less usual experiences suggests other ways to spend a coastal holiday.
