Jahtsadamad: Orikum

Orikum sits south of Vlorë in a mountain-backed bay and is typically used as a practical base before moving along the more exposed coast. The key navigation feature is the entrance channel: it’s described as shallow in guides, so deeper-draft yachts should enter with care. 

Orikum is generally not treated as a full port of entry for clearance, so formalities are usually handled elsewhere in Albania. In practice, it’s valued for shelter and straightforward routing for short day sails.
