Porto Palermo Beach 2026: Swim Below Ali Pasha's Castle
Porto Palermo Beach is 8 km south of Himara: mixed sand and pebble, unusually blue water, no facilities, and a 300 ALL castle on the headland above it.

9 km south of Himara (about 18 min drive)
Porto Palermo Beach offers a unique combination of history and seaside beauty, situated near the iconic triangular fortress built by Ali Pasha and a Cold War-era submarine tunnel. The water here is notably bluer than at other beaches in the area, though water shoes are recommended on the mixed sand and pebble surface. With very few people around, it is an ideal spot for history buffs who want to combine a castle visit with a quiet swim.
"Bluer than other beaches"; water shoes recommended
