Description
Experience Albania’s hidden seaside peninsula with a day trip to the Cape of Rodon. Visit the Church of St. Anthony, Skanderbeg’s castle, see Communist- bunkers, and relax on a quiet Adriatic beach.
Leave Tirana for a scenic coastal day trip to one of Albania’s most underrated destinations — the Cape of Rodon, a dramatic peninsula stretching deep into the Adriatic Sea.
Your first stop is the Church of St. Anthony, a tranquil medieval monastery surrounded by sea views and peaceful landscapes. Continue your exploration at Rodoni Castle, built in the 15th century by Albania’s national hero, Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg. Walk through the ruins, learn its strategic role against the Ottomans, and enjoy panoramic photo stops along the cliffs.
Along the coastline you’ll also see several Communist-era bunkers, a symbol of Albania’s Cold War past and the massive bunkerization project under Enver Hoxha.
To end the day, enjoy free time to relax on the beach—perfect for swimming, sunbathing, or simply unwinding by the Adriatic before the comfortable return to Tirana.
