Description
The Porto Palermo beach is near the castle of Porto Palermo ( also known as the castle of Vsiliqia ) is a small bay but very beautiful , with white cliffs and the sea looks like a personal pool. Certainly do not leave without visiting the castle of Vasiliqi, built by Ali Pasha 19th century.
The castle would have been vulnerable to cannon fire from the hill above and this also suggests an early date for its construction when cannon had not developed the range they had later. In 1662 the Venetians feared the Turks would recondition it. In 1803 Ali Pasha offered the castle and port to the Royal Navy. At which time the fort only had 4 or 5 cannon implying that Ali Pasha did not see the fort as important for him.
