Added 2022-02-09 21:48:06 +0000 UTC

In this episode we sail to the remote canyon of Gjipe, a gem of the Albanian Riviera. Not knowing anything about this hidden paradise we set sail from Himare. Though the wind gods are not on our side, we are greeted by dolphins on our bow instead on our sail there.

As we drop anchor in front of the canyon, we get greeted by a spectacular sight and cannot wait to explore this marvel. We leave our sailboat without any preparation, still in our flip flops. The sheer vertical cliffs are looming and drawing us in. The unexplored nature makes us think we are in a set of Jurassic Park.

We travel to many places but have never seen something like this and there is not another soul in sight. It is almost like we are the only ones here, surrounded by pure nature. What a spectacular place, few have ever sailed to or heard of.
