Next stop Karaburun, just in time for lunch. You'll need to bring some cash if you want to eat at the restaurant there. Lunch ran us 2600 lek and we shared a plate of food. You can also rent an umbrella and 2 lounge chairs for 2000 lek. We spent 4 hours on Karaburun. Note that snorkel gear was not provided”

“I have to be honest, we did this excursion in August 2025, and I feel like I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. For 80 euros per person, we got a taxi-driver on a speed-boat, who very reluctantly drove us to all the indicated locations.
