If you don't mind crowds and a little chatter to accompany the soft sound of the sea, Saranda is a good spot to check out. It's one of the most popular beaches in Albania, due to both its beauty and its location. This beach is conveniently situated close to the international border that separates Albania from Greece, with many Greek visitors hopping over the line to spend a summer weekend here. The town has a lot of good eateries and amenities and a few different beaches to enjoy. The beaches here tend less soft than some of the others, with little pebbles and shells washing up on shore, but there are plenty of loungers and other beach equipment to help you make the most of your stay.
