The Times highlights Albania as emerging Mediterranean tourism destination

TIRANA, May 16 – British daily The Times highlights Albania among emerging Mediterranean tourism destinations this summer.

The newspaper says travellers increasingly search for more affordable holiday destinations across the Mediterranean region. It adds that demand for holidays in Italy, Spain and Greece has increased this year. However, the report notes that destinations further east continue to offer lower prices and better travel deals.

Against this backdrop, The Times describes Albania as a country that is consolidating its tourism profile in the Mediterranean region. The article highlights Albania’s coastline, archaeological sites and lower travel costs compared with traditional Mediterranean destinations.

Meanwhile, the report refers to Butrint, Apollonia and Berat among the country’s main cultural attractions. It also points to growing interest from international tour operators and continued hotel development along the Albanian coast.

In addition, the article highlights tourism activity in Himarë and Sazan Island. The newspaper says eastern Mediterranean destinations increasingly attract visitors with cultural tourism, seaside resorts and competitive prices.
