Summer holiday ideas

in #life6 years ago (edited)

Dear Steemians,

It is the time for summer holidays and the weather is quite convenient for organizing and spending some time on the beach.
In this article, I will provide for you some of the best places to spend some time on the seaside in Albania. That would be very convenient for Balkans and EU citizens, but not limited to, due to traveling issues as it is not far from such countries.

Below you will find some pictures with the description of each place suggested.

Ksamil.jpg

Ksamil is a village and a former municipality in the riviera of Southern Albania, and part of Butrint National Park. Ksamil is one of the most frequented coastal resorts by both domestic and foreign tourists. Ksamil Beach and Albania's Ionian Coast further north was included in the Guardian's 20 of the best bargain beach holidays for 2013. The main attractions are the nearby Ksamil Islands. The mainland beach is small but clean.

Dhermi is a village in Vlorë County, Albania. It is part of the municipality Himarë. he village lies 42 kilometers south of the city of Vlorë and about the same distance north of the southern city of Sarandë. The village is built on a slope of the Ceraunian Mountains at approximately 200 meters in altitude. It has a new large promenade by the sea , and all the facilities emerged into the wild nature. In addition, it is considered by the Albanian youth as a nightlife destination.

Borsh is located in the south of Albania opposite to the greek island of Corfu, Borsh offers a beautiful vista. You can travel here by flying to Corfu and taking a boat to Saranda or by flying to Tirana and taking a bus down. Borsh is of course also accessible with a car. Borsh offers a mirade of different activities. We even built a volleyball field right on the beach for our guest to use. There are dozen of great restaurants near our vila. And for our guests exclusivly we have arranged a partnership with the restaurant right next to our vila. If you are a guest with us you get a special discount.

Vlora.jpg

Vlora is known also as Valona, it is located in south-western Albania where the two seas, Adriatic and Ionian, meet. Vlora enjoys a beautiful position beacause it is the gatway to the Albanian Riviera , which is the gem of Albanian Tourist places. The town with its wide boulevards decorated by huge palm trees has a real southern Mediterranean feel to it. It is located in front of Karaburuni peninsula and Sazani Island, close to various sandy and rocky beaches and the scenic nearby mountains. The city carries historical importance to Albania as it hosted the First National Assembly, which declared the country’s independence from Ottoman rule on November 28th, 1912. The Museum of Independence is dedicated to this historic event. Other museums include the ethnographic and historic ones. Vlora is the starting point of the Albanian Riviera and is one of the most frequented areas of Albanian “Sun and Sea” tourism.

Saranda.jpg

Saranda, is a coastal town in Albania. Geographically, it is situated on an open sea gulf of the Ionian Sea in the central Mediterranean. Tourism is the main driver of the economy of Sarandë. It is a significant tourist destination on the Ionian Sea, and by far one of the most popular destination in Albania. It's a prosperous region with varied attractions, plants and mountains, rivers and lakes, springs and virgin beaches, citrus plantations, olive groves and vineyards, pastures and woods, fish and shellfish farming, desirable hunting places. In short, the right place for the development of tourism. Saranda's stony beaches are quite decent and there are plenty of sights in and around town, including the mesmerising ancient archaeological site of Butrint and the hypnotic Blue Eye Spring. Between Saranda and Butrint, the lovely beaches and islands of Ksamil are perfect for a dip after a day of exploring.

I hope you have enjoyed reading it.

Cheers!
