Everything You Need to Know Before You Visit

Where exactly is Fish Shop Ardit in Saranda?

We're at Rruga Idriz Alidhima 230, Sarandë 9701 — next door to the Adidas store on Rruga Idriz Alidhima. Open in Google Maps →

What time do you open — and when does the fish run out?

We open at 06:00 every day and close at 14:00. Full selection available until around 11am. Come early for whole fish, come late for deals on the last pieces.

Do you sell fish ready for the grill?

Yes. We clean, gut and scale any fish you buy. Tell us it's for a BBQ and we'll prep it exactly how you need it. No extra charge.

Do you serve tourists visiting villas and hotels?

Absolutely — a big part of what we do. We serve everyone from local families to holiday guests. Same fish, same price, no tourist markup.

What's the difference between your fish and supermarket fish?

Age. Supermarket fish in Saranda is often 2–3 days old and sometimes imported. Our fish landed last night or this morning from local Ionian boats. Clear eye, sea-air smell — not fishy.

Can I call to check what's fresh before coming?

Yes. Call us at 069 896 7528 and we'll tell you exactly what came in that morning.
