Roidha Bay – Saranda

Roidha Bay is located approximately 7 kilometers northwest of the city of Saranda and about 5 kilometers southeast of Cape Qefali.

Pogajeta Strait

The Pogajeta Strait is formed between Cape Qefali to the southwest and Hunda e Dosës” Cape to the northeast. The coastline extends 3 cables in a southeast direction, with the entrance width from the sea being 1 cable, narrowing to just 38 meters at its narrowest point.

The southern and western shores of the strait are rocky and covered with evergreen shrubs, while the southeastern shore is lowland, forming the end of a valley. This causes the waters near this part of the coast to be shallower.

Roidha Strait

The strait is deep and completely free of underwater hazards. The 5-meter depth contour (isobath) lies 8–10 meters from the southern and northern shorelines and about 80 meters from the southeastern coast. In the middle of the strait, at about 75 meters from the north and south shores, the depth reaches up to 20 meters.

The strait is protected from southern, eastern, and partially northern winds, but it is exposed to western and especially northwestern winds. Small boats can enter the strait, but caution is required, as they must dock directly on the rocky shore.
