Clean beach, toilets available, showers are also possible. It costs 2,000L for 2 sunbeds. We were particularly struck by the fact that there were few children. That was really chill.

If you go down the path next to Hotel Visad, there is a free beach.

The beach is now called Saranda International. In August 2026, the price for an umbrella and 2 sun loungers was 20 euros. A bit pricey. The beach is made up of small pebbles. The sea is literally 2 meters deep, then there are large boulders. But it's also deep right there. Pros: showers, decent restrooms, Wi-Fi. Cons: you can't bring your own food or drinks. We went out for lunch and then came back (no problems, no extra charges).
