Most of the Albanian coast also offers great swimming. The most famous is the Riviera between Durrës and Kavajë and around Vlora. In the north you can find the resort of Velipoja or Shëngjin, in the south you can find Sarandë and villages north of it. There are always clean, deserted beaches waiting for you.
