Saranda
Vodič kroz grad: plaže, izleti i letovanje
Grad Saranda je južno čvorište Albanske rivijere: luka preko puta Krfa, autobusi za celu zemlju, i plaže i izleti juga. Ime potiče od vizantijskog manastira Četrdeset svetih, na grčkom Agioi Saranta (Άγιοι Σαράντα), a na starim italijanskim kartama Santi Quaranta. U gradu živi oko 20.000 ljudi, njegove plaže su uske i pune, a položaj mu je izuzetan: Butrint, Ksamil, Plavo oko, Gjirokastër i Grčka su na jedan dan puta. Za letovanje u Sarandi smestite se ovde, a kupajte se na drugim mestima.
