Albanian coast

The Albanian coast stretches along the Adriatic and Ionian seas, and these articles are guides to its beaches, seaside towns and best seasons. The north is mostly flat and sandy, while the south below Vlorë turns into the mountain-backed Riviera with pebble coves and clear water. Our posts include a guide to quieter beaches along the Albanian seaside, a feature on Dhermi Beach on the Riviera, and a look at spring, when the coast is calm and green before the summer season. They are useful for choosing where along the coast to stay.
