Car Rental in Dhërmi

Dhërmi is one of the Riviera's most beautiful beach villages — clear water, beach clubs, and the hidden Gjipe Canyon beach nearby. It sits just below the Llogara Pass, and with a rental car you can hop between Dhërmi, Drymades and the quieter southern bays at your own pace. Pick up in Tirana and drive south over Llogara.

FAQ

How do I get from Tirana to Dhërmi?

The drive is about 200 km and takes roughly 3 hours — take the Vlora highway south, then climb and descend the spectacular Llogara Pass to reach Dhërmi on the coast.

Can I pick up my rental car near Dhërmi, or do I have to go to Tirana?

Pickup is available in Tirana city or at Rinas Airport — from either location the drive to Dhërmi takes about 3 hours on a well-maintained road.

Do I need an SUV for Dhërmi?

Late June through early September is the prime season. June and September give you warm water and far fewer tourists than the packed August peak.
