About Vlore
The Lungomare Promenade anchors Vlorë’s seaside life, a coastal Albanian city beside Vlorë Bay known for beaches, seafood and Albanian Riviera scenery.
Three to seven days works well in Vlorë, with the Lungomare area offering a convenient base for waterfront evenings and access to the center.
Kaninë Castle and Independence Monument and Flag Square add layers of medieval and national history, while boat trips reach Sazan Island and the Karaburun Peninsula. Radhime, Zvërnec Island and the Narta Lagoon bring quieter coastal settings, and relaxed restaurants serve Tavë Kosi alongside seafood pasta.
