Nice little hike on the ridge to the bottom of the beach.. good views all around. Lots of bunkers to explore.. interesting history of Albania.. A church, sandy beach, castle and bunkers all in one place....must go. though the road is rough but easily doable with low speeds with any car.. Free parking on site No entry fee

This a very beutiful place. The castle is very nice and cool to explore even though it's pretty small. The placement on the beach is pretty cool and allows to have a good time with friends and family. Unfortunately the beach is not well taken care of and has lots of trash and it's really sad to see that such a beautiful place is not taken well care of.

This castle, also known as Skanderbeg’s Castle, is located in a strategic position and had great importance in its time. Today, however, it stands in the middle of an environmental disaster, surrounded by trash all around. You can park at the main parking area nearby, and then walk about 20 minutes to reach the castle. The path can be challenging at times, with some large steps, so wear good shoes and make sure to bring water, as there are no bars or shops in the area. The walk to the castle is scenic, but the castle itself doesn’t offer much to see.

Rodon's cape is a beautiful place. Going there shouldn't be a bothersome situation but instead it is; the road is unpaved and you have to drive very slowly to not ruin your car. 2nd, you have to walk 20 minutes or so to get to the castle and the path is so narrow and we were in constant fear of snakes but luckily did not encounter any. It's a beautiful hike though and there were berries along the way; would've certainly gathered some but it was too hot to stop for such activity. 3rd, it's a pity that the easily accessible bays of the area were full of trash; nobody seemed to bother about that. All in all, we were trying to get to the white sand beach but it was such a long way there apparently and some people were returning stating the shore had plenty of algae that made it difficult to walk until it's deep enough to swim. So we returned back as well. Either way, it's a nice hike with beautiful views and there were some new businesses being constructed in the area. I hope they at least clean the shore for their visitors cause the local municipality clearly is not doing that.

15-20 minute walk from the parking lot. Watch out for snakes!! We saw 2. Also the path gets quite overgrown in the summer but just power through. It is worth seeing the castle!
