Sobre Palermo Beach
La playa de Palermo es una tranquila cala de guijarros en la bahía de Porto Palermo, justo al norte del promontorio coronado por la fortaleza triangular de Ali Pasha. La orilla es de grava y guijarros respaldada por matorral bajo y roca, con el agua clara y turquesa por la que es conocida la bahía. Es uno de los varios pequeños puntos de baño repartidos por la ensenada resguardada, muy adecuado para un baño tranquilo lejos de las playas más concurridas de Himara. Se recomiendan escarpines sobre la superficie de guijarros.
