Want a budget beach holiday in Europe? Travel to Albanian Riviera with this guide and you’ll be all set, because Albanian beaches are amazing. And I know just where to find the best beaches Albania has to offer.
Updated April 2023
Totally empty white beaches with crystal clear turquoise water, fresh seafood, baklava and local wine, and prices so low they make Thailand look expensive – isn’t southern Europe just wonderful?
Gjipe Beach
Wait. Europe?
It doesn’t really seem possible that an undiscovered beach paradise could be found in Europe these days, much less that it would be so affordable. But that’s exactly what the Albanian Riviera is.
Okay, maybe it’s not totally undiscovered, but while there in early I had most of the beaches I visited pretty much to myself.
After falling for the Albanian Riviera a few years ago, I couldn’t wait to return again – this time with a car! After only spending time on Saranda, Ksamil, Himara and Vlora’s main beaches (and Lazarat, but that’s another story…), this time I was determined to explore every nook and cranny of the Riviera and find the best secret beach spots.
And that’s exactly what I did!
Car Rental in Albania
To properly explore Albania’s best beaches, you’ll definitely need a car. Or at least, you will if you want to see all the best, hidden beaches in Albania! During my first trip to Albania I hitchhiked and took the bus everywhere, but this time I wanted to be able to stop at all the hidden spots I saw from the road, so we rented a car in Tirana for a week.
Car rental in Albania isn’t too expensive, but it’s SO worth it. You can see so much more with a car, plus renting a car in Albania meant that we could get to totally deserted beaches instead of sticking to the more popular (and crowded) beach spots like Ksamil and Vlora.
Driving in Albania
A lot of people have asked me about driving in Albania, and while Dan was actually the one doing the driving, I would say it really isn’t so bad. Most of the roads of little traffic, and for the most part the roads are very wide and nicely paved. And I felt like Albanian drivers were very reasonable – it certainly wasn’t a scary place to be driving.
Well, it was fine aside from the time we drove down Albania’s Death Road – but that’s far away from the Albanian beaches, so you probably won’t be headed there.
I would recommend renting a car through a global chain as their prices are lower and the companies are reliable – I usually use RentalCars to compare car rental prices across companies.
Travel to Saranda
Saranda (Sarandë) is the main city along the Albanian Riviera, though with around 30,000 inhabitants it’s not exactly huge. While this is probably the main destination for tourists on the Riviera, it’s not actually the best for beaches – but it’s a fine base from which to explore some nearby beaches, as well as Butrint, the ruins of an ancient city nestled in a dense forest.
While there are better Albanian beach spots along the coast, Saranda is well worth a stop to get a feel for Albania’s beach towns. You can buy cheap seafood and produce (try the cherries!!) at a local market, check out the shops and restaurants along the main beach promenade, and walk up to Lekursi Castle for some unreal views.
Don’t forget to wave smugly at the throngs of tourists across the bay in Corfu, paying three times as much to swim in these same waters. I mean, if you’re the sort of person to do something like that, which of course you aren’t. Me neither.
The Best Saranda Hotels and Hostels
DEMI HOTEL // for those wanting a luxury hotel in Saranda
This four star hotel is right on the beach, and it’s absolutely worth upgrading to a sea view room for a balcony overlooking the water! This is a family-run hotel so it has a lot more character than a big chain, and the staff are super sweet and helpful here.

BED & BREAKFAST AHMETI // for those looking for a mid-range hotel in Saranda
This B&B is run by a very nice family and I love that it’s within easy walking distance of the city center while still being tucked away from the noise downtown (it’s about a 10 minute walk uphill from the center). They also have parking spaces available here, so you won’t need to stress over finding a spot on the street, which again is a huge plus in Saranda.

DOLPHIN HOSTEL // for those traveling to Saranda on a budget
Dan and I stayed at Dolphin Hostel while in Saranda, which I couldn’t recommend more highly! Even when we arrived exhausted from a harrowing drive from Tirana we somehow ended up staying up late into the night talking with the hostel’s manager.
Breakfast is included (and amazing!) and on our second night he cooked everyone a delicious meal of fish and fresh clams, which mysteriously only cost us each 1 euro. The best!

Ksamil – a favorite Albanian beach town
A 15-minute car or bus ride away from Saranda, Ksamil is where everyone goes to see the best Albanian beaches. These are some of the only truly sandy beaches on the Albanian Riviera (most have smooth white stones).
The only downside to Ksamil is that its beaches are fairly small and often privately owned, so you’ll have to pay a couple of dollars for a beach chair or drink/snack to use the beach, and there are more people here. I mean, by Albanian standards, which really just means you’ll see 4 or 5 other people on the beach.
Ksamil is perfect if you want a pretty beach without traveling far from the center of things. You could even stay in a lovely apartment right by the beach there. In fact if you’re looking for a really laidback Albanian beach holiday, that’s exactly what I’d recommend you do. There are so many nice places to stay in Ksamil, and like I said, this is one of the only places with truly sandy beaches in Albania.
The Best Hotels and Apartments in Ksamil
HOTEL CASTLE // mid-range to luxury hotel accommodation in Ksamil
There actually isn’t really any true luxury hotel accommodation in Ksamil, but Hotel Castle is still quite luxurious, especially with its gorgeous views out over the Albanian Riviera. It’s right by the beach and near town and the design is sort of hilarious Albanian kitsch in a building meant to look like a castle!
Check current rates and availability here
VILLA DESTINATION // mid-range apartment accommodation in Ksamil
Villa Destination is right by the beach and offers basic but clean little apartments with balconies.
Check current rates and availability here
KSAMIL APARTMENTS // budget apartment accommodation in Ksamil
The Ksamil Apartments are a short walk both to the beach and the town center, but still in a quiet area. The apartments are spacious with balconies and really for the price they are such a good bargain.

The Blue Eye (Syri Kalter)
Okay, this is a spring, not an Albanian beach, but you might want to forget the seaside and just spend your entire Albanian holiday gazing into it.
Water in The Blue Eye bubbles up from more than 50 meters deep at a sort of alarming rate. Seriously, where is it all coming from, and how can it be that blue? Is Albania’s tourism board secretly dumping dye into this thing each morning?
The Blue Eye spring is about a 25 minute drive inland from Saranda (on the way to Girokaster) and I’ve heard that it can get crowded in the summer with people swimming, but in early June it was empty – and freezing!
And before heading back to Saranda drive farther up into the mountains for some pretty stunning views! I mean, Albania has a lot of stunning views, but this was one of my favorites.
Drive the SH8 from Saranda to Himara
The drive along the seaside from Saranda to Himara is stunning, and full of turn-offs into little abandoned beaches. We simply turned down every small road we passed that looked like it was heading towards the water, and not once were we disappointed.
I’d give you more specific directions, but turning down random roads to discover hidden beaches in Albania was part of the fun! Plus it’s nice to keep the beaches hidden so only the more adventurous beach hunters find them, right? But let me just say, it will be well worth the effort.
The only living souls we encountered on this Albanian beach:
One of my favorite spots was a teeny tiny strip of beach right after Porto Palermo – the view of the little islands from the road wasn’t terrible either!
Travel to Himara
Smaller and quieter than Saranda and Ksamil, Himara (Himarë) is simply perfect.
Locals in Himarë are predominantly Greek, which definitely comes across in the feel of the place. I think I gained five pounds from all the delicious food here, while Dan gained at least five new Facebook friends. People in Himara are so friendly!
If I had to choose I would say Himara was my second favorite stop along the Albanian Riviera, and that’s largely because of the wonderful people we met there. And the views weren’t terrible either.
Wondering what my favorite stop was? Read on!
Best Hotels and Apartments in Himara
HIMARA RIVIERA ROOMS // mid-range to budget accommodation in Himara
We stayed at Himara Riviera Rooms, where we had a lovely little apartment with a balcony overlooking the sea. The owners were SO lovely and this is really my #1 recommendation for a hotel in Himara. It really is just perfect.
Check current prices and availability at Himara Riviera Rooms
CAMPING KRANEA // budget accommodation in Himara
Our first night we camped at Camping Kranea on a beach in the north of town, and it was so, so lovely to wake up right on the beach. If you’re on a very tight budget this is an excellent option.

RAPOS RESORT HOTEL // luxury hotel in Himara
This is the only real resort in Himara, and it has amazing sea views from its rooms, a swimming pool, and a beach right in front of the hotel. The wonderful thing about a beach holiday in Albania is that a hotel like this isn’t even expensive – if you want to escape to a beach resort I would highly recommend heading here!

The Best Albanian Beaches near Himara
One of my favorite beaches in the area wasn’t actually in Himara, but 10 kilometers north in Jala. Jali Beach wasn’t as empty as other beaches we went to, but I enjoyed burning sunning myself with the locals and taking in the relaxing atmosphere of the small beachside village.
Travel to Dhermi
Dhermi (Dhërmi) was my favorite place we stayed in Albania! Dhermi Beach is the longest I saw in Albania and seems to cater to more upscale tourists. The village itself lies up a hill from the water and has beautiful old stone houses built into the side of a mountain.
If you want the best Albanian beach experience, I would definitely recommend heading to Dhermi (in fact I have recommended a beach holiday in Dhermi to so many of my friends!).
Best Hotels in Dhermi
GUEST HOUSE FOUR SEASONS // budget to mid-range hotel in Dhermi
We stayed in a double room at Guest House Four Seasons, which had a balcony overlooking the sea and was surprisingly cheap. It felt like being on a luxury holiday, but on a backpacker’s budget.

DRYMADES BUNGALOWS // mid-range to luxury hotel in Dhermi
I had dinner here one night and it was SO nice. The food was amazing, the restaurant has a view over the water, and it’s really close to a sandy beach. If you want an Albanian beach escape, I’d definitely come here!

EMPIRE BEACH RESORT // luxury hotel in Dhermi
If you want a luxury resort, the Empire Beach Resort looks incredible, and you get a gorgeous swimming pool as well as the beach.

The Best Beaches near Dhermi
Dhermi is also just 8 kilometers from what might be Albania’s most beautiful beach: Gjipe Beach.
You’ll have to walk the last couple of kilometers, but I promise it’s worth it! This was definitely my happy place on the Albanian Riviera, and I plan on returning to Gjipe Beach again and again.
In fact I’m super curious if it’s still as hidden now as it was when I visited – if you’ve been recently let me know in the comments!
No Photoshop necessary!
Driving from Dhermi to Vlora and Tirana
And, if you’re heading north from Dhermi you’re in for a serious treat – well, unless you’re prone to carsickness. The hairpin curves on the road climbing the mountain towards Vlora are brutal, but they’ll take you to a heavenly view of the coastline.
A little too heavenly in our case though, as we drove right up into a cloud. At least I remember beautiful views from last year’s visit!
And finally, when you’re planning your trip to Albania you definitely want to remember travel insurance.
I never, ever travel without travel insurance (especially in a place like Albania where you’ll be swimming and in the mountains!) and it has saved me on multiple occasions – like that time I was bedridden in Beijing. My personal pick for travel insurance is World Nomads, and I have done a ton of research on different providers.
World Nomads is incredibly affordable, and when I have had to use them I simply sent my hospital receipts and had a check in the mail within a couple of weeks. So easy, and totally worth it.

The Albanian Riviera looks like an absolute paradise! I can’t get over the photos of Gjipe Beach – that water! Are any of these beaches accessible by public transport, or would you say renting a car is necessary?
Olti says
Rent a car!!! Is just 20 $ per day 🙂
Alana says
Can you recommend where to rent a car?
Silvia says
Renting a car definitely made things easier, but if you have GPS on your phone and can follow along while in a bus or hitchhiking then you could jump out at the beaches! Otherwise you’d have to stick more to the beaches near the main towns – which are also pretty 🙂
Alana says
Can you recommend where to rent a car?
Silvia says
I used Albania Car Rentals at Tirana Airport, but only because I didn’t have a credit card so I couldn’t rent from the larger chains. I recommend looking at a car rental search engine to find the cheapest rental place (my favorite is here: http://bit.ly/29kzxZR).
Ola says
I’ve never been in Albania yet, but now it’s definitely on my bucketlist!
Silvia says
It definitely deserves a spot there!
MissLilly says
wow I’m in love!!! I knew Albania was gorgeous, but looking into your photos I’m even much more in love! Can’t hardly wait to explore it all!
Silvia says
You will be even more in love in person 🙂
Claudia says
Can i ask how did you get there? I can see flights only to Tirana or Corfu and i think a ferry?
What was your experience?
Silvia says
One time I flew into Tirana and rented a car, and the other time I got a bus from Greece to Saranda.
Deepti @ Endless Postcards says
I’ve wanted to go to Albania for the longest time!! I’m planning a trip to Europe next summer but I was unable to fit Albania in because they don’t have an international rail system, and I can’t really afford any other type of transportation. (I’m coming from America and visiting Europe for 2 and a half months and I’m in university — budget is limited!) Hopefully I can visit Albania soon and see these beautiful places myself.
Your pictures are beautiful and that hostel dinner sounds like a dream! Glad to see that you had a good time!
Silvia says
I definitely can understand having to cut things for budget reasons. Your trip sounds pretty amazing without Albania though – you’ll just have to save Albania for later!
becky hutner says
Really blown away by this coast. But I do like a bit of a scene with my beaches. Would you say there are cool beach bars/clubs around or is it all pretty quiet?
Suada B says
Night life in Albania’s Riviera is the hottest 😉 😀
Silvia says
I had totally forgotten until reading your comment, but Dhermi beach already had a bar set up playing music, even so early in the season. So yes!
Kirstie says
These look amazing! I only spent a few hours in Albania, crossing from Ohrid, Macedonia into Pogradec, but that taste left me wanting more. Such an interesting country!
Silvia says
It really is fascinating!
CityoftheWeek says
Oh my, this looks like paradise! I’ve been to Albania two months ago, and visited Berat..But it seems that I might have to go back for a beach holiday sometimes soon! LOVE the photos 🙂
Silvia says
You DO need to go back for a beach holiday 🙂
Edith says
I love Albanian beaches. I have been there twice and I can’t wait to go back next year.
Justine says
Dammit Silvia! Just when I think I’ve figured out where I want to go on my big trip next summer (it was Peru, then India) you’ve made me start second guessing myself. I’m pretty sure I want to follow your exact footsteps now. Because everywhere you’ve gone recently, including Albania, looks incredible. Silly me for not even knowing that Albania had beaches. I just looked at a map and I’m feeling a little dumb… Anyway, I’m pretty sure I need to live there. Or at least travel there 🙂
Eden says
I haven’t heard of these places before, but the water looks amazing — such a beautiful shade of blue. Definitely adding these spots to my bucket list.

Elly says
Lovely pictures! Seems like there are a lot hidden beautiful places in Albania!
David @ Hostelworld says
The Albanian Riviera is SO the place to be this summer. Thanks for sharing your awesome pics – I need to book in a trip there asap 🙂
Silvia says
It really does seem to be having a moment!
Melanie Fontaine says
I honestly can’t get over how incredibly blue the water is!! Absolutely stunning! I’ve been noticing a lot of hype and talk about Albania this year and considering that I have never been anywhere even remotely close to this region, I should probably make a point of heading to the Balkans soon! 🙂 A hidden beach paradise in Europe always sounds like a good idea!
Silvia says
Albania definitely seems to be growing as a travel destination!
Camille says
Drool. Swoon. And yay to you teasing those poor tourists stuck on Corfu! 😉
Silvia says
I’m still drooling, ha.
Miriam of Adventurous Miriam says
Silvia, woah! That water and that sunset. Seriously!
Silvia says
Right?! Ahh still can’t get over it!
Jojo says
I’m currently road tripping my way across Europe to Albania so this blog post popped up in my Twitter feed at just the right time. I can’t wait to hit the beach!
Silvia says
Ah perfect, you’re going to love it!
Rachael - Travelling Anyway says
Wow Silvia – what amazing photos. You’ve successfully added another destination to my wish list (which appears to be getting longer rather than shorter might I add). Safe travels x
Silvia says
Haha that really is the way with those lists, isn’t it?
Tanya says
Leaving in a week for Albania! Thanks to bloggers like you my husband and I are very excited for our trip. Thanks for your post. A little nervous about driving in Albania.
Silvia says
Driving in Albania actually wasn’t bad at all because there aren’t too many cars on the road. You’re going to have a blast!
Samantha says
Hi Silvia! Amazing pictures! Love it!
I’m driving from croatia til albania next summer and i was wondering if u could tell me how long should I stay in each of the important cities in Albania?
Tks 🙂
jessie says
This looks amazing!! do you have any posts about how to rent a car, return the car, and navigate the roads in Albania? Planning a trip for next summer from USA would love to do Croatia-Montenegro-Albania over a 2 week trip, any suggestion of routes and methods of transport greatly appreciated!
Silvia says
If you look here you can see all my posts on Albania, including driving and the car rental: http://www.heartmybackpack.com/category/albania/. Good luck, I’m sure your trip will be fantastic!
Lucy says
Your trip looks amazing we’ve been eyeing up the Albanian Riviera for a while now! Will it be possible to do some of your route without a car? How are the driving conditions if you do rent a car?
Many Thanks!
Silvia says
Yes, I actually traveled from Saranda up to Tirana without a car the year before! I hitchhiked a lot, which is really easy in Albania, but there are also buses you can get. Have fun!
Melissa says
Just got back from trip, rental car thru Albania and Macedonia. Very affordable, less than 20 dollars a day. The main roads are in much better condition than we had anticipated and traffic was quite light. The roads in certain cities, Vlore for example, are pretty bad, follow the locals, they know where every pothole is! Albania is worth every little issue you might run across, we loved every minute of our trip.
Anna says
Hello Melissa!
My sister and I will be visiting Albania in two weeks and would like to road trip around Albania. If it is possible where did you rent your car? We will start off at Saranda.
anei. says
Hello there!
Found your post when surfing the net and trying to find some more info and reviews about Albania.
I’m travelling there in a couple of months, and I’m gonna have my base in Saranda.
Plan is to visit beaches and interesting places nearby, and your post was very helpful!
I’m not going to rent a car, but I’m hoping there are reasonably priced buses or taxis to get around there.
If you have good tips for restaurants etc. I’d be happy to hear those!
Silvia says
You can definitely get around by buses too, don’t worry. And I just ate mostly ate local bakeries or little street side restaurants. Nothing special, but really yummy!
Jones says
Wow. Okay, you’ve convinced me. I’m going to Europe for the summer and hitting up all these places. Thanks!
Kinga says
OMG! This is so nice to read about the places I’ve been to on someone else’s blog!! 😀 I STAYED IN THE SAME HOSTEL in Saranda! 😀 did you also have some water cuts in the afternoon? 😀
And yep, I also did the Gjipe Beach. 😀 I see you share my taste for the Balkan countries (just seen your other post about Kosovo, where I was A WEEK ago), so I guess you just gained another reader. 😀 Greetings from Poland! 😉
anja says
Wow I have only seen the northern part of Albania. This looks amazing. How are the roads? Easy to travel or not?
Silvia says
They’re a bit rough, but definitely fine for travel!
Rhys says
Thanks for the great article and even better photos. I’m looking forward to my trip to Albania more than ever now 🙂
Silvia says
That’s great to hear, I hope you love it!
Mariano Gonzalez says
Hello I have a stop in Sarande on a cruise in May 2017. We are 4 adults and a 3 year old child. We just want to stay on a beach close to the port and be calm …….. I read about Ksumil beach or Pulebardha Beach …. which ones recommend? or other? I am worried about the subject of transportation ….. buses ….. taxis …. ferrys? Is there availability and good frequency? Thank you very much. Mariano from Argentina.
Silvia says
Ksamil is really nice! It’s very easy to find transportation – I would simply get a bus or a taxi (it should be affordable) to the beach. Have fun!
albanczyk says
Nice photo!
Albania is a very atmospheric location,
see You in Saranda !
Brittany says
Thanks for your helpful posts! We are traveling to Albania for your honeymoon in July and we’d like to stay in Ksamil. Can you let us know the easiest way to get there? We’ll be coming from Ireland.
Thank you!
Silvia says
The easiest way is probably to fly to Tirana and then get a bus or rent a car to Ksamil (I recommend renting a car if you can, as then you can explore more of the beaches). You can also get a bus from Athens, but it’s a long journey!
Brittany says
Thank you, darling! xxx.
Dawn says
Hi, fab articles! I’m thinking of Albania for this summer. I have been looking at car hire prices but they seem to be at least 50euros a day for the smallest car and it’s not easy to find a company that will allow me to pick up in Tirana and drop off in Sarande . Did you book online in advance or when u arrived?
Thanks
Silvia says
I booked online in advance – no idea why it’s costing so much. Did you try sixt.com? That’s always the cheapest in Norway, at least.
Liam says
hi,
Going to Albania in July. Saranda for few days, is there any point staying in Ksmail for night or two also when the two are so close and we have a car? Similarily later on we will travel to Himare, would you recommend Dhermi for night or two or is himare a good base for both? thanks
Silvia says
No, I think I would just stay in Saranda and visit Ksamil for a day. I did love staying in Dhermi though and would try to do that if possible, but otherwise you can also just drive there. Have a wonderful time!
Brian Walsh says
Is this a good place for family?. Kids 16 and 12?? We love beaches and cultural meals , exploring different things.. NO McDonalds and no disney.. beach houses, sleeping closer to the water the better? We like to plan as little as possible and run into things to do if we can move from the beach.. We only have ten days to two weeks. If you had two kids of those ages and were going to Albania would you feel safe and what would you do as far as planning our Albanian beach trip from New Mexico? thx Im very bad at looking at internet and planning i need validation i guess????
Brian
Silvia says
Yeah I think it should be a lovely place to go with kids! And I’d definitely feel safe there. I’d try to rent a car so that you can have the most flexibility and really explore all the beautiful beaches together. I’m sure you’ll have an amazing time!
Lene Østreng Veland says
My family with the “kids” on 16 ang 19 are going to Saranda this summer. We are looking for a place to stay. Where in the city will you recoment to stay. I have found a nice Airbnb appartment west of the stadion, but are afraid its too fare from the center. Is it better to find a place more south of the city center?
Silvia says
I would definitely try to stay nearby the city and I do think south is better than west, though anywhere should be lovely! Have a wonderful time!
RunawayBrit says
Hi,
I am currently researching Albania, and I came across this post. We are in Budva, Montenegro, right now and will be going to Albania in the next few days. We are reliant on public transport, but finding it very difficult to find out any information about buses. You mentioned that there are buses in some of your Albania posts. How do we find out the bus routes and where they go from? I would be really grateful for any info you could share!
Holly Olson says
Thank you so much for this post! I am planning a trip to Albania this summer. When renting the car- how did the gas process work? Pretty easy to figure out?
karine says
hi!
do you have any tips for himare and the best beahes around and places to eat?
Gilbert De Jonghe says
Albania is match more than beaches, go to the North, try the Komanlake en go further to the wild Alps mountains and the onbelieveble nature.We did it 8-22 juin 2015.
Said says
Albania the great nation
Nina says
Hi there. Thank you for all these details. We’re the family of 5 – kids aged 2, 5 and 8. We are looking for a budget trip to Albania and would really like to experience quiet sand beaches. Any suggestions of an area?
Thabks a mill,
Nina
BreePoulin says
Thanks for this informative article. Will be very useful in my future trip to Albania. Excited to have a great time.
Jeremy says
Great Post!
I’ve been looking for a great place to go for nice beaches in Europe for a long time. You’ve sold me on the Albanian Riviera. Thanks a lot, need to plan this trip.
Eric Wilson says
You have collected info nicely and shared it at one place. This travel guide is very nice to understand the journey.
Nada says
I’m planing a trip this July and this by far has been the best blog!! Thank you so much and thank you for sharing all your resources!!
Eric Wilson says
These beach views are awesome. Great Thanks.
Jim says
Hopefully I can visit Albania soon and see these beautiful places myself.
Your pictures are beautiful and that hostel dinner sounds like a dream! Glad to see that you had a good time!
Myriam says
Thanks! I’m considering stopping by the beach.. I’m going to Albania in September :))
Alban says
Great article! Glad to see you have included Ksamil in the list. The islands of Ksamil are definitely one of the most beautiful islands you will ever visit, and the area is one of the best in the Albanian riviera. You will surely want to come back again 🙂
Tori says
I like reading your blog. I have never been to Albania, I really hope that it will turn out to visit this country in the near future. Thanks!
George Lattos says
Once this travel ban is lifted, I will be booking my flights, because it looks amazing!
Silvia says
Hopefully we don’t have to wait too long!
Guy says
I can’t wait to visit!

Hi! Any of these beaches you recommend for jogging? I believe most are pebbly, no?
wavesst says
Amazing article Awesome read
Joshua says
Looks awesome, but do you think the resorts are expensive? Can someone with low budget go to the resorts?
Philippa Gatley says
Thanks for all the amaizng pictures and advice. Planning a trip in Sept hoping weather good for beach spots you’ve featured! Where do you recommend is a good base to stay to travel easily by car rental to these places you’ve recommended?
Thanks in advance!
Similans says
Wow what amazing photos – the islands of Ksamil are definitely on my bucket list – One Day 🙂
