    The Blue Eye

    Next, we journey inland to one of Albania’s most famous natural wonders, the Blue Eye (Syri i Kaltër). Nestled in a lush forest, this stunning spring is a deep, crystal-clear water source with mesmerizing shades of blue and green. The exact depth of the spring remains a mystery, as divers have been unable to reach the bottom. As you arrive at this magical spot, take a walk along the wooden pathways leading to the spring, surrounded by untouched nature. Feel the cool air rising from the icy waters and admire the hypnotic beauty of the deep blue center. You can take incredible photos, enjoy a peaceful moment by the water, or visit the small café nearby for a drink with a view
