Getting There
-
Walking
Start from the center of Sarandë, at the main promenade (Shëtitorja) along the coast. Head north along the promenade until you reach the roundabout with the large statue of a sailor. From the roundabout, take the road that leads uphill, which is the Rruga e Sarandës. Continue walking straight; you will pass by several shops and cafes on your way. Follow the road as it curves up the hill. The walk is steep, so take your time and enjoy the views. After about 20-30 minutes of walking, you will reach the Panoramic Viewpoint of Sarandë, which offers stunning views of the city and the Ionian Sea.
-
Public Transport
From the center of Sarandë, you can take a local minibus (furgon) that goes towards the hills. Look for a bus that has 'Ksamili' or 'Butrint' written on it. Board the bus from the main station or any bus stop along the promenade. Tell the driver you want to get off at the viewpoint (they will know). The ride should take approximately 10-15 minutes. Once you get off, follow the small path leading up to the viewpoint, which is well-marked with signs.
