Greek newspaper Kathimerini: 700 thousand Greeks went on vacation in Albania

"Although their beaches are ranked among the most beautiful in the world, Greeks have started looking for new destinations to spend their holidays, with the Albanian Riviera being on the list of the most favorite."

This is what the Greek newspaper "Kathimerini" writes in one of its articles, as it talks about 700 thousand Greeks who spent their holidays throughout 2024 in our country.

Once an unknown land, today Albania has become a real tourist attraction for our southern neighbors.

The hospitality, the beautiful nature, the wonderful beaches of the Adriatic and Ionian Sea are also the reason that made them turn their eyes to the Albanian coast.

Mykonos, one of the most visited Greek islands, was unaffordable for them, but they say they found its counterpart in Saranda, where they were amazed as they saw instead of a village a city overcrowded with Italian tourists, with clean beaches and crystal clear waters and very affordable prices.

Himara and Gjirokastra are another destination that has made them wonder.

The coast of Durrës in terms of development is compared to that of Halkidhiki, with beaches overcrowded by foreign tourists, organized cafes and restaurants and cleanliness and order both on the beaches and in the city.

What seems to have left the most impression on them are the skyscrapers in Tirana and the tall buildings.

The security and hospitality they found in our country, which they say made them reject the stereotype that there is hostility between Albanians and Greeks, is not behind.
