The Islands
Outside Ksamil lie several small, wooded islands. The closest one is so near land that many swim to it in calm weather; to the others, you can take a kayak or one of the small boats that operate from the beaches during the season.

How to find the right beach – and a little space – in Ksamil
Ksamil's beaches are short and bright, with crystal-clear water and small islands just offshore. They are fantastic – but also the Riviera's most popular, so planning pays off.
Sunbeds and Crowds
During high season, most beaches are filled with sunbeds rented out by restaurants and beach bars. Arrive early, or choose June and September when it's significantly quieter.
Keep in Mind
Bring water shoes for the rocks, only swim to the islands in calm weather, and show respect for the delicate nature within Butrint National Park.
