Rruga Gavril Dara, Vlora 9401, Albania

Albania is a rising star for those seeking crystal turquoise waters, glorious sunshine, and rich history and culture. Vlorë, the former capital of Albania, is perfectly situated on a picture-postcard bay, where the Adriatic and Ionian seas meet. Surrounded by an eclectic history emanating from the Greeks and Romans, this fascinating city is the perfect getaway for sightseers and history-lovers. Wander around the Ethnographic Museum of Vlorë and the Museum of Historic Relics, learning about Vlorë’s folk culture, traditions of the city and the surrounding region’s fascinating past. Why not take a half-day trip to Zvernac for a change of scenery? Here, you can explore the enchanting 14th-century church, St. Mary’s, and enjoy the peaceful stillness of the stunning Nagarta Lagoon. If you’re looking for a faster pace, journey to Grama Bay on a speedboat tour. There, marvel at the pristine beaches and explore the blue-lit water-caves in the Karabulut Peninsula.

Known for its incredibly fresh seafood, Vlorë is home to plenty of traditionally Albanian restaurants with a dreamy coastline view. With Italy just a short hop across the Adriatic, Vlorë’s cuisine is also infused with Italian influence, meaning you’re never too far from a baked-to-perfection pizza or a creamy, tantalising gelato.
