Jet ski rental & guided tours in Vlorë, Albania
Sunset on a jet ski: the bay turns gold
Every day the bay of Vlorë gives its best show in the last hour of light: the wind drops, the water flattens, and the sun slides down exactly behind the dark silhouette of Sazan. The sunset ride times the whole tour around that moment.
The route follows the Sazan tour — island cliffs and the Haxhi Ali Cave — but in the golden hour everything changes: the limestone turns amber, the water turns to glass, and the photos don't need filters. About 60 minutes of riding, one departure a day, timed to the season's sunset.
This is the most requested slot by couples, and the first to sell out in July and August: if you're here for a few days, book it first and plan the rest after. Two people can share the same ski.
What's included
- Your own jet ski for the golden hour ride
- Local guide on a separate ski

How it works
Meet before the golden hour
About 1.5 hours before sunset at the Triport: briefing, life jackets, and out of the harbour as the light warms up.
Sazan in the warm light
Cross the strait while the sun drops: the island's cliffs turn amber and the bay empties of boats.
The cave at dusk
Last entry of the day at Haxhi Ali, then the slow ride back as the sun touches the horizon behind Sazan.
Back after dark-blue hour
Return to the dock with the promenade lights coming on. Dinner in Vlorë tastes better after this.

Frequently asked questions
What time does the sunset ride leave?
It depends on the season's sunset: roughly 18:00 in June, 18:30 in July-August, earlier in September-October. We confirm the exact time on WhatsApp when you book.
Is the sunset ride worth it compared to the day tour?
If you like photos and calm water, absolutely: the bay is flat, the light is golden and the sun sets right behind Sazan. Same route, completely different atmosphere.
How much does the sunset ride cost?
It depends on the date and how many skis you need: message us on WhatsApp for a quote in minutes. Guide, fuel, briefing and life jacket included.
Can I book the sunset slot the same day?
In low season often yes; in July and August it usually sells out 1-2 days ahead. Message us on WhatsApp and we'll tell you right away.
