Путеводитель по городу: пляжи, поездки и отдых
Саранда — южный центр Албанской Ривьеры: порт напротив Корфу, автобусы по всей стране, пляжи и экскурсии юга. Название происходит от византийского монастыря Сорока мучеников, по-гречески Агиои Саранта (Άγιοι Σαράντα), а на старых итальянских картах — Санти-Куаранта. В городе живёт около 20 000 человек, городские пляжи узкие и людные, зато расположение исключительное: Бутринти, Ксамиль, Голубой глаз, Гирокастра и Греция — всё в пределах одного дня. Живите в Саранде, а купайтесь в других местах.
Как спланировать отдых в Саранде: где жить, чем заняться, как добраться на автобусе, пароме или самолёте, новый автовокзал, такси, рынки и лучшее время для поездки. Идеальная база для Бутринти, Голубого глаза и Корфу.
