Explore the Cape of Rodon on a day tour from Golem, Durrës, or Tirana. Visit the Rodoni Castle, St. Anthony Church, and enjoy free time on the beach.
Begin your adventure with a scenic drive through the countryside, passing olive groves, small villages, and panoramic coastal views. Upon arrival, take a light hike (about 20–30 minutes) along a trail surrounded by untouched landscapes, leading you to the breathtaking cape.
Stop at the Rodoni Castle, a seaside fortress built by Albania’s national hero Gjergj Kastrioti Skanderbeg in the 15th century to resist the Ottoman invasion. The castle walls, now partially submerged in the sea, create a dramatic setting perfect for photography and storytelling.
Next, visit the St. Anthony Church, a serene and well-preserved medieval church that adds to the site’s spiritual and historical atmosphere. After exploring, enjoy free time to relax on the beach, take in the sea breeze, or enjoy a packed lunch or picnic in the wild beauty of this coastal haven.
