I drove from Livadhi and took a 15-minute stroll to reach the beach. A quaint bar is also located just a 5-minute walk away, so you don't have to carry all your belongings with you. The location is simply breathtaking.

This petite beach boasts a breathtaking vista that can be reached with a leisurely 20-minute stroll. The crystalline water is a sight to behold, and a mere 5-minute walk to the neighboring beach will lead you to a convenient bar. For a daily fee of 500 leks, you can park your car at the Bougainvillea and enjoy this idyllic spot to your heart's content.

After seeing some negative reviews on YouTube about the bay being dirty and smelly, we decided to check it out for ourselves. Luckily, the beach was easily accessible by foot, although some vehicles did drive on the pot-holed road.

This beach is stunningly beautiful and can be easily accessed either by foot or a 4x4 vehicle. During peak season, it tends to get quite crowded.

The scenery is absolutely breathtaking, with crystal-clear water that is perfect for a dip. However, be prepared to share the beach with what feels like the entire population. And if you're lucky, you might just get to greet a pile of garbage upon arrival, courtesy of some less-than-tidy visitors. It's a real pity, as the natural beauty of the area is truly unspoiled.

Is the beach good for sunbathing?

Akuarium II beach (Vlore County) is not fully equipped for sunbathing. However, if you are not picky and are willing to spread out on a towel, you can sunbathe here as well. The natural shade will allow you to hide from the scorching sun in the peak of its activity. Well, the photos of our visitors will be the best proof of that, all the available photos of the beach are above.This beach is poorly suitable for sunbathing. First of all Akuarium II beach (Vlore County) is completely lacking in comfortable sunbathe facilities. There are no sun loungers and umbrellas, this is usually not a problem for an unsophisticated tourist who can relax on a towel, but in this case the rest can be very uncomfortable due to pebbles.Lying on it is possible, but is far from comfortable. In addition there is a lack of natural shade, which leaves you alone with the summer sun. So our recommendation is that you can sunbathe comfortably on the Akuarium II beach for a short time, and not at the peak of sunbathing. If you want to explore the photos of this beach - they are above on the page.
