Gjiri i Shën Janit

Gjiri i Shën Janit (St. John's Bay) is a deep, sheltered anchorage tucked into the Vlorë coastline, where the seabed drops to 20 metres just 150 metres from the cape — meaning you'll find good holding in calm, clear water. It's the kind of quiet spot that feels worlds away, with rugged Albanian coastline all around and little else to pull you back to shore in a hurry.
