Blue Eye is a natural phenomenon and an attraction for tourists and it is situated in the southern part of Albany, close to Sarande town.
In September 2019 we had a very beautiful adventure in Albania. It is a fascinating country that I want to describe in stages through the places visited. From the town of Sarande the road continues to the village of Muzine. Located in an enchanting natural park, guarded by sycamore and oak forests, the springs of the Bistrice river travels 25 km until it empties into the Ionian Sea.
From a karst pit, which seems bottomless and to which many divers could not measure its real depth, spring 18 waters from the depths of the earth: Blue Eye (Syri i kalter). Seen from above from the platform, the karst pit looks like in the photo below:
The water has unreal shades of blue-green-turquoise, bubbling quietly to the surface. The Albanians built a metal platform that forms a terrace, just above the "Blue Eye" lake, so that tourists can immortalize, from the best position, this magical natural phenomenon.
As the natural park, it must be specified that the entire forest is permanently green, due to the positive temperatures throughout the year. But the water, with its unreal color is very cold, with a temperature below 8 degrees.
Near the river we can sit and enjoy a rich meal and contemplate the unusual view chromatic.
