Prinos Beach
Along SH8 south of Maraçi, 10–15 min walk (5 min drive) from Himara town center
About Prinos Beach
Prinos Beach is a ~400-meter stretch of light pebbles along SH8 between Maraçi Beach and Potami Beach, set against cliffs and mountains. The water is strikingly clear and turquoise but unusually cold — underground springs from the Himara mountains feed the bay, and the seabed drops away quickly from shore, so aqua socks are a smart call. A significant section of the beach is operated as a beach club, with paid sunbeds, restaurants, showers, changing cabins, and toilets restricted to club visitors.
