I am missing Albania sooo much, so I thought I'd pop together a bit of a photo collection from our recent trip - all of these photos, in my opinion, showcase the beauty of the Albania Riviera. It's going to be such a booming holiday destination soon and I feel so lucky to have visited already!

I honestly couldn't recommend a trip to the Albanian Riviera more - it's a gorgeous and currently very affordable holiday destination which is set to see a big boom in tourism. We stayed in Sarande, but if you're after more of a party vibe then definitely head to Ksamil. I have a blog post sharing how to get to Sarande, because it isn't as straightforward as other destinations, but bloody hell it's worth it.
Have you visited the Albanian Riviera or are you considering it? Let me know! And if you enjoyed this post, please consider leaving a comment or sharing it to your own social media as it helps me a lot!
I hear a lot of positive things from Albania and it'll be the next big destination after Croatia has been overrun in the past couple of years. A big pull for me would be the unspoilt nature, the relaxed beaches and crystal clear waters. How is it getting around language-wise?
