Borsh Beach

The sheer length is the main draw. You can walk for an hour and transition from "developed" beach clubs with electronic music to completely silent, undeveloped stretches. It is the easiest place in Albania to find free space. You can lay a towel almost anywhere without being harassed to rent a sunbed, especially if you move away from the central cluster of hotels.

The beach is about 20 minutes south of Himarë and 45–60 minutes north of Sarandë. The main road is paved and high-quality, but the final 1km tracks down to the beach are often dusty, unpaved gravel

This is not a sand beach. The stones are large, white, and can get extremely hot. Water shoes are highly recommended

Located on a steep hill 500m above sea level, the ruins of the Borsh Castle offer the definitive "God-eye" view of the entire coastline. Inside, you’ll find the remains of an 18th-century Ottoman mosque
