If you are considering a beach holiday with a difference, how about Albania? The long, indented southern coastline is called the Albanian Riviera. This is one of the last virtually untouched Mediterranean coastlines; and, backed by mountains soaring to 2000m, one of the most beautiful. Some 50kms to the north of Saranda, a scenic 1 hour drive along the narrow twisting road high above the sea, is the small seaside village of Himara.
