BEYOND THE POSTCARD

Meet the quieter side of the coast.

Karaburun’s western shore is steep: Albania’s National Agency for Protected Areas describes it as cut by caves and deep canyons that only rarely end in a beach. Dafina is one of the beaches on this coast, and no road comes down to it, so Triton’s guests arrive by boat. Enjoy the water and ask the guide which activities the conditions allow that day.

Come for the colour of the water. Stay present for the landscape, the boat journey and those little moments between stops.
