A brief stop in Albania

Our short visit to Albania enabled us to explore a new place and avoid an overnight crossing from Italy. We visited the town of Vlore and the surrounding mountainous area, sometimes called the Albania Riviera.

Cruising in Albania

We'd seen Albania's Sarande on a day tour on a previous visit to Corfu, but this is the first time we'd visited on our own boat.
