Situated in the southern part of Albania, on the Ionian Sea coast, Saranda is an enchanting city known for its beautiful beaches and idyllic weather. The Mediterranean climate, combined with the city's turquoise waters and sandy beaches, makes Saranda a fabulous summer destination. The city's unrivaled beauty is enriched by its remarkable historical sites, including the ancient city of Butrint, now a UNESCO World Heritage site, and the enchanting Blue Eye Spring. At night, Saranda comes alive with vibrant nightlife offering an array of restaurants and bars to enjoy traditional Albanian music and dance as well as local cuisine. With its inviting blend of natural beauty, historical richness, and lively culture, Saranda transforms every visit into an unforgettable experience.

I went to Saranda and I really liked it there. It was my favorite place. I stayed in a hostel which was very social, so I made many friends. I took part in a boat trip for about 30 euros per person and we all had a great time. I also rented a car for a day and went to Himare. It was beautiful. I recommend having cash, because debit cards are only accepted in big grocery stores, and it's better not to use euros as you will lose some money.
