Prepare for one of the most stunning boat journeys you'll ever take. Here in the heart of the Albanian Alps, you'll cruise through a dramatic, fjord-like landscape with towering cliffs plunging into emerald-green water. The main ferry takes about two and a half hours to cross the reservoir, but the real magic is often found on a day trip to the Shala River, a hidden gem known for its crystal-clear turquoise waters perfect for a refreshing swim. It's an unforgettable trip where the journey itself is the true destination.
