The Canyon of Gjipe is a narrow limestone gorge carved by a seasonal stream, ending at a pristine cove with turquoise waters. Visitors can hike the 20-minute trail from the parking area through the canyon, passing vertical cliffs and small caves, before reaching the beach. The clear water invites swimming and snorkeling, while the cliffs offer spots for daring jumps. Its remote setting, flanked by steep hills, provides a sense of adventure and tranquility away from crowded resorts.
Don't miss
- Jump off the cliffs into the deep blue water at the canyon's mouth.
- Explore the small sea caves along the beach's rocky edges.
- Hike the canyon's interior to see wildflowers and geological formations.
