Albania
Sarande
This little-known port is a hidden gem along the Eastern Mediterranean shore. Just across the sea from Corfu and the tip of Italy, Sarande is an idyllic paradise like its neighbours, but less visited by tourists. The main embankment offers cafes, restaurants, swimming and small boat excursions. Sit and watch the world go by as you sample some of the Mediterraneans’s best seafood or take a hike to Lekuresi Castle to explore Albania’s history and admire the panoramic view of the harbour and mountains.

Montenegro
Kotor
Away from the tourist hotspots of Italy and just South of the Croatian resort of Dubrovnik, Kotor offers stunning Venetian architecture alongside the backdrop of lucious mountains and rivers. An excursion to explore the underground waterways of Durmitor National Park is highly recommended, as is a trip to Tara Canyon, one of the world’s deepest gorges. Staying in the city, one of the Mediterranean's best preserved old towns welcomes you with its 900-year-old churches and mighty forts nestled between the glistening sea and mountains.
