#tripaway Pema e Thate is a small beach near Ksamil. A big sign in Ksamil says that Pema e Thate is just one km away, but it is about five km away. It faces Corfu Island and it’s also the closest point between Albania and the Island. This beach is different from the other beaches in southern Albania due to its shallow waters, a fact that makes it a perfect bathing place for children.

#tripaway Ksamil is located in the south of Albania opposite the island of Corfu, and has an extraordinary sea, but very few people know this corner of paradise.
Ksamil is one of the greatest beauties of Albania, and is even described as a place resembling paradise, even though European tourists do not have much knowledge.#visitalbania

Albanian riviera - a hidden gem
The Albanian Riviera, with its stunning beaches and crystal-clear waters, is an emerging gem in Europe’s travel scene, and Ksamil stands out as its crown jewel. Nestled near the Greek border, Ksamil boasts some of the most pristine beaches in the region, with soft white sands and turquoise waters that rival the Caribbean.
The small islands just off the coast are perfect for a short boat ride, offering secluded spots for sunbathing and swimming. The waters here are calm, making it ideal for families and those looking to relax in a peaceful setting.
Beyond the beaches, Ksamil also offers a taste of authentic Albanian culture. The local cuisine is a delightful mix of Mediterranean flavors, with fresh seafood, olive oil, and locally grown produce taking center stage. Don’t miss trying "byrek," a savory pastry, or fresh-caught grilled fish.
Exploring nearby attractions like the ancient city of Butrint, a UNESCO World Heritage site, adds a historical depth to your visit. The Albanian Riviera, especially Ksamil, is a paradise waiting to be discovered.#ksamil #Albania

🇦🇱Bucketlist Albania:
🏖️ The Albanian Riviera surprised us positively!
The colour of the sea was incredible, the price was excellent (we spent very little). Very welcoming and friendly people (it hurts the heart to see how humble and nice they are). Everything is very well structured: hotels, beach clubs, restaurants, petrol stations with snack bars and good toilets.
👴🏻 Although the older people didn't speak any other language, all the menus had options in English and the waiters knew how to speak it. We had no problem communicating. A funny thing is that on the local radio they seem to speak in Italian and the songs are all Italian, but when you speak Italian to people, nobody understands.🤔😂
💳 The local currency is the "Leek" but we had no problem paying for everything with apple pay or card.
They always try to get you to pay in cash first, but once you've told them you have no other option, they take the little machine out of your pocket. So we didn't have to withdraw any money.
🚗 To get to the region called the Riviera (the region with the beaches, which is in the south of the country) there are two options:
Get off at Tirana (the country's capital), hire a car and drive for 3.5 hours or get off at Corfu - in Greece 🇬🇷 - and take a boat (there are boats all day and they take about half an hour).
We decided to arrive in Tirana. We found the road great, new, well signposted and the scenery beautiful. It was well worth the trip.
👧🏻 We also realised that the trip is good for all ages, there are lots of lively beach clubs for young people, many elderly people on the beach and plenty of options for children. The sea is calm and there are lots of toys for hire on the beaches (I thought this was very different!) Like lots of pedalos, inflatable slides and toys, we saw lots of families there with babies and young children.
🎶 Summary: put Albania on your wish list, because it's so worth it! ✨

Dimond islands
These pristine natural beauty of Albania demonstrates at its finest. There are quite a few islands within vicinity of Ksamil , ones you can kayak to and even one you can walk to. I’d highly recommend this place despite super crowded beaches.

turquoise water!!
I will say that this is one of the best beaches in Albania, the water is so clear and blue. and we are so lucky that we came during the period where there were not lots of tourists. we’ve heard that this place is normally packed with tourists, but when we arrive, the place seems to be so calm and peaceful. there are plenty of restaurants and bars nearby, where you can grab a drink and watch sunset with your friends and families.
it is definitely one of the best places to go with your partners. the only thing that we didn’t really appreciate is you have to pay sunbeds here. we decided not to pay for any sun beds, we just used our towel which was completely fine for us.
overall, this is where you can find beautiful beaches in Albania, while it’s not as touristy as other beaches in Croatia, Italy and Portugal #passionpassport #gooutside #beach#summer

There is a comfortable and cheap hotel in the small town of Ksamil. We have already booked a hotel with a small garden and a 10-minute walk to the beach. When we arrived, we saw that the real thing was more real and comfortable than the picture. Two people stayed in a family room and only needed 120 yuan to stay in a clean hotel with a kitchen and a bathtub. Ksamil suddenly gave us a good impression.
The walk from the hotel to the beach is all the flowers and plants grown by the locals. When you walk to the main street, the shops on both sides are closed, even the restaurant. Several locals who came to the beach were racing faster, and the children were playing football. There are no tourists, even under the umbrellas have been forgotten, but it is such a small town, let us more deeply enjoy the original flavor of the Mediterranean.
Sarand is located in the coastal city of southern Albania. It is a typical Mediterranean climate and is the most popular seaside resort in Albania, becoming the honeymoon capital of newcomers. The once-sleeping fishing village has become a prosperous city, with KSamil owning the most beautiful beach in Sarande, and in 2013 it was included in the Guardians 20 cheapest beach resorts. Many Greeks will take a boat ride. Going here for vacation, just because of the high quality and low price.
ksamil is surrounded by mountains, quaint seaside country towns and beautiful beaches, June to September is the best season, the water turns turquoise, the underwater white beaches at a glance Unlimited, you can also play on the nearby islands and enjoy a swim between the island and the island.
