The Top 5 Beaches in Albania
As yet relatively undiscovered by foreign travellers, Albania's beaches are the perfect setting for a holiday.
As yet relatively undiscovered by foreign travellers, Albania's beaches are the perfect setting for a holiday.
One of several beautiful beaches in Saranda enjoying views across the Ionian Sea to Corfu, Mirror Beach is an excellent choice for anyone wanting a quieter spot. Sunbeds and shades are available for hire, and the clear waters are excellent for snorkelling.
Situated on the Albanian Riveria and with a large rock formation that divides a pebbly beach from a sandy stretch, Dhërmi is justifiably popular. However, it's large enough never to feel crowded.
Another gem along the Albanian Riveria and surrounded by olive trees, Livadhi offers particularly impressive sunsets. A variety of nearby restaurants and tavernas serve an enticing mixture of Greek and Italian cuisine.
If you want to get away from the crowds, Gjipe is the place to go. Reached by either a 30-minute walk from the nearest road or a boat trip from nearby Jala, Gjipe often allows you to experience its white sands and turquoise waters in solitude. The tall cliffs that surround the beach are pockmarked with little caves that you may even be able to explore when swimming in the sea.
Located on the Albanian shore of Lake Ohrid, Pogredec has fine sand that is still mostly enjoyed only by Albanian holidaymakers. The perfect place to relax on a sun lounger, the beach is an easy walk to many restaurants, where you can enjoy freshly caught grilled trout and a variety of traditional Albanian dishes.
