How safe is Durrës?

A very quiet and safe city. Public transport is not really the best. However nice place to chill, quiet, good nightlife and pretty safe. Please know that these things change when it comes to Tirana(the capital)

Is Durrës worth visiting?

Couple travel

I felt safe oberall but i would not recommend to solo travelling women. Taxi drivers and hawkers can by quiet intrusive so do not make eye contact if you don't want to buy something. Also there are a lot of stray dogs in the streets and on the beach, especially at dawn. The beach is very nice and there's always opportunities for playing volleyball or renting a pedal boat/ jetski. The restaurants and appartments that are not direct at the beach (but still only 2 minutes away by foot) are way cheaper amd still clean with good food :)

About Me

Hi! My name is Klea and I am from Albania. This past year I’ve gotten too much into traveling but I got tired of waiting for people so I decided to take my first solo trip:) I am mostly an outdoor person, but on the other hand I do like me a good club. I like spontaneous decisions and like living on the spot
