About Albania Sun
A passion for the Albanian Riviera – the Mediterranean's next big discovery
Albania Sun was born from a fascination with the coast where mountains plunge into the clear blue Ionian Sea. We guide you along the Riviera from Vlorë to Butrint – from hidden coves and family-run tavernas to up-to-date news, events and live weather.
A living hub for visitors, residents and dreamers
The Albanian Riviera is one of Europe's last unspoilt coastlines. With the Llogara Pass, the villages of Dhërmi and Himarë, Ali Pasha's castle at Porto Palermo, the islands of Ksamil and ancient Butrint, the area has a soul all of its own.
Our goal is to be the most relevant, reliable and lively place for everything about the Riviera. Unlike traditional travel guides, we update our content every day.
