You step aboard as the harbor loosens its grip and Vlora's coastline pulls away — the Lungomare sliding past with tile roofs and olives, cliffs sharpening into sunlit cliffs and small, folded coves. The speedboat hums, spray tasting faintly of the Adriatic; in the distance the Ionian and Adriatic meet in a wide, bright seam.

History
Vlora sits where the Adriatic meets the Ionian and was the site of Albania's 1912 declaration of independence; its port has served Illyrian, Roman and Ottoman mariners for centuries.
Conservation
Seagrass meadows (Posidonia) line parts of the bay — avoid anchoring on beds, pack out waste, and follow the captain's anchoring guidance to minimize impact.
