TIRANA, August 10/ATA/- Compared to the rest of the Mediterranean, the Albanian Riviera is relatively undiscovered, says Katie Stepek, Flight Expert Manager for cheap flight alert platform “Scott’s Cheap Flights” in an article published in the US magazine “The Zoe Report”.
“There are breathtaking panoramic views, beaches similar to those in neighboring Montenegro and Croatia, and plenty of historical ruins and sites. Even at peak season, it is possible to find some of the beaches completely empty and the nearby village of Ksamil has arguably some of the prettiest beaches along the Mediterranean. The bus to Ksamil costs less than $1, and eating out is significantly cheaper in Albania than practically anywhere else along the Mediterranean.
“When you’re finished relaxing and are ready for adventure, there are multiple UNESCO World Heritage Sites nearby; the ancient Greek city of Butrint is a 10-minute drive away and contains an amphitheater, monastery and a fort, and many pretty mountain or seaside towns. Gjirokaster, an Ottoman-era town, has a fantastic old town, a 12th century ruined castle and virtually no tourists.” //a.i/
