Kalaja e Lëkurësit (Lëkurësi Castle) in Sarandë, Albania, offers breathtaking panoramic views of Sarandë, the Ionian Sea, and Corfu, particularly at sunset. It is easily accessible by car or taxi from Sarandë, though the terrain within the ruins can be uneven. Visitors can explore the castle independently, though a guide could enrich the historical understanding. The castle is generally free to enter (excluding potential parking fees or restaurant expenses) and is open year-round, with summer evenings being especially popular due to the on-site restaurant and bar. A typical visit duration is 30 minutes to 1 hour for sightseeing, extending if dining. It's recommended to wear comfortable shoes and plan a visit around sunset for the best experience.
