Palasa Beach
Northernmost beach of the Albanian Riviera, just north of Dhermi (~35 min drive north of Himara)
About Palasa Beach
Palasa Beach stretches roughly 1.5 km along the northern end of the Albanian Riviera, just south of the Llogara Pass and a short drive north of Dhermi. Its bright white pebbles and exceptionally clear water make it one of the most striking beaches on the coast, and the Green Coast Resort section here became the first beach in Albania to receive Blue Flag certification. Beach clubs, restaurants, sunbed and umbrella rentals line the shore, with paid premium sections, free public stretches, and water-sports operators offering jet ski, kayak, paddleboard, and dive gear.
