Gjipe Beach

Highlight • Beach

For me the most beautiful beach on the Albanian Riviera. As difficult to access, hardly any visitors. If you're lucky, the drinks trolley is open.

September 16, 2024,Gjipe beach and canyon from the shotgun hostel

Hiking shoes preferred, no flipflops. The road down from the village to the beach is very badly signposted by the red and white GR colours. You can easily get lost and I was happy to have the tour with komoot directions. The road up to the village from the beach is easy to follow and much more frequented.

Beautiful hike to Gjipe bay and gorge. A bit tedious at first, as there are hardly any trail markings. The best way to orient yourself is at the Friedhof v. Vuno. Then through beautiful old olive groves. Later well distinguished by the scratchy Maccia with great views 😊😊
