Dhërmi (,
Drymades) is a village in
Vlorë County,
Albania. It is part of the municipality
Himarë. The village lies 42 kilometers south of the city of
Vlorë and about the same distance north of the southern city of
Sarandë. The village is built on a slope of the
Ceraunian Mountains at approximately 200 meters in altitude. It comprises three neighborhoods: Gjilek, Kondraq (also known as Kallam), and Dhërmi itself. The mountains descend to the southwest into the
Ionian coast and
Corfu in the distance to the south. Nearby is the village of
Palasë. The inhabitants of Dhërmi speak a variant of the
Himariote dialect, characterized by archaic features not retained in
standard Greek. Recently, the coastal area has seen a boom in the construction of accommodation facilities, such as wooden villa complexes. In addition, it is considered by the Albanian youth as a nightlife destination.
