Saranda, the gateway to the southern Albania, is a small town located
between high mountain and the Ionian Sea.
The name Saranda derives from
an early Christian monastery dedicated to Santi Quaranta (Forty
Saints).
Located on the shores of Ionian sea, in front of Greek island
of Corfu, Saranda is characterized by a Mediterranean climate and warm
sea waters. Due to its location and warm weather Saranda is one of the
most attractive tourist town in Albanian Riviera, where honeymooners
traditionally spend their holidays. Located in front of the sea and
along the main promenade there are some hotels and restaurants which
offer you catering facilities and accommodation. Daily ferryboat link
Saranda with the nearby Greek island of Corfu.
