Water sports routes

Kayaks, SUP, and kites need a little logistics.

The Albanian coast is unspoilt because it isn't obvious. Here are the routes that are worth the boat ride.

Rinia Beach

40 min from Tirana airport

Best Albania kitesurf base for lessons, gear rental, and shallow-water practice near Durrës.

Shkodër / Buna

Base in Shirokë

Kayak or SUP the lake and Buna River wetlands, then stay in Shkodër for dinner.

Ulcinj, Montenegro

About 1h from Shkodër

Velika Plaza is the stronger kite day trip. Ask for cross-border permission before taking a rental car.
