ALBANIAN RIVIERA

Albanian Riviera, Although Saranda may be the best known beach destination on Albania’s coast, there are a whole host of smaller towns and beach resorts in Albania that are collectively known as the Albanian Riviera. The area generally refers to the stretch of coast on the Ionian Sea that starts at Saranda and continues all the way north to Llogara National Park. Besides Saranda, Dhërmi is probably the most popular beach town on the Albanian Riviera thanks to its nightlife and the various music festivals that it hosts. However, there are plenty of quieter towns along the Albanian Riviera where you can easily spend a few days relaxing by the beach, such as Himara, Borsh, Palase, and Vuno.
