For families

A boat tour in Sarandë that actually works for families.

Small-group tour, calm swim stops, life jackets in every size, and a private beach where kids can dig in the pebbles while parents actually relax. Adults and kids pay the same €30 / 3000 ALL per-person price.

Why families choose DES

We limit group size, so it's never chaotic. The captain slows down for cave entries so kids see them properly. Krorëz beach lunch means a real break in the middle of the day — nap, snack, splash — before the afternoon stops.

What we bring for kids

Child-size life jackets, snorkel masks in kids' sizes, shaded seating on board, and plenty of cold water. Children and kids pay the same €30 / 3000 ALL per-person price as adults.

Best age range

Kids 4 and up tend to love it. Under 3 works fine but expect a nap on board. Teens genuinely enjoy the caves and snorkel spots — it's not a kiddie tour.

Everything about boat tours in Sarandë & the Albanian Riviera

Sarandë boat tours

The highest-rated Sarandë boat tour on the Albanian coast

Looking for the best boat tour in Sarandë or searching Google for Saranda boat tours? DES Boat Tours departs daily from Sarandë harbour and covers the wildest stretch of the Ionian coast, sea caves, hidden coves, and our own private beach at Krorëz. Small groups, expert local captain, everything included for €30.

Guests consistently rate us the #1 boat trip in Sarandë because we skip the crowded ferry routes and take you to spots most operators don't know about, including Secret Beach, only reachable by boat.

Albania boat tours

Why the Albanian Riviera beats Croatia, Greece & Ksamil ferries

The Albanian Riviera is the last unspoiled coastline in the Mediterranean. Water clarity rivals the Maldives, prices are a fraction of Croatia or Greece, and the coves stay quiet even in high season. DES Boat Tours is proudly local, an Albania boat tour run by Sarandë captains who grew up on these waters.

Compared to a packed Ksamil ferry, you get a small-group experience, real free time at Kakome Bay and Gjiri i Ushtarit, and a captain who actually pauses for photos.
