Aliko (Albanian definite form: Alikoi; Greek: Αλύκο) is a village and a former commune in Vlorë County, southern Albania. At the 2015 local government reform it became a subdivision of the municipality Finiq.[2]

Besides the village Aliko from which it takes its name and which functions as well as an administrative center, the administrative unit consists of 9 other villages: Çaush; Dritas; Halo; Jermë; Neohor; Pllakë; Rahullë; Tremul; and Vurgu i Ri,[2] which are inhabited solely by Greeks.[3]
