Join Jelja Serani from Saranda Summer Tours and Yachting, who has provided her services to more than 2,000 yachts since establishing the agency in 2013 - not only handling port operations, but ensuring a smooth and enjoyable visit to crew and guests. With an area similar to Belgium or the US state of Maryland Albania boasts a spectacular coastline along the Adriatic and Ionan Seas. Closed to outsiders for much of the 20th century, Albania has long been Mediterranean Europe's enigma. Until fairly recently its rumpled mountains, fortress towns and sparkling beaches were merely a rumor on most travel maps. But, with the end of the communist dictatorship in 1991, Albania has steadily swung open its gates. The first curious tourists to arrive discovered a land where ancient codes of conduct still held sway and where the wind whistled through the shattered remnants of half-forgotten ancient Greek and Roman sites. Nowadays, tourism has become Albania’s most important source of income thanks to its stunning mountain scenery, crumbling castles, boisterous capital and dreamy beaches rivalling any in the Mediterranean. Until recently for superyachts, Albania was known as a good place to go bunkering due to its tax-free fuel, but Albania actually ticks off all the must-haves of a Mediterranean luxury yacht destination, including a brand-new marina that will open in 2022. Albania is affordable, it has good infrastructure and so many uniquely local places that cannot be found anywhere else. Come and discover Albania with us!
