The only Albanian peninsula protected as a green zone and designated as a natural monument. It features vast stretches of untouched greenery, mostly shrubs, with a rugged, mountainous terrain. Scattered along its coastline are a few pristine, wild beaches with crystal-clear waters. The eastern side is more accessible, with several small beaches such as Shën Vasil and Shën Jani. The western side remains completely wild and can only be reached by boat. One of the most famous natural landmarks here is the Cave of Haxhi Alia. We sincerely hope this national park remains protected and is not sold off for construction, as it is one of the last unspoiled coastal treasures of Albania a true natural asset that has resisted the wave of build massacre.

I've never been here and sadly I don't have the money to undertake such an amazing adventure; I love exploring caves. Albania is such a beautiful country. I'm here commenting because of my concern for this area, now that Americans have decided to build a resort of 100+ rooms on a nearby uninhabited island to the north. Apparently, all bribes have been paid and promises (lies) have been made. Stay strong my friends. And please accept my sincerest apology on the behalf of American Voters.
