Palasa
After passing Qafa e Llogarasë
on a road that dates back to
the time of Pompey, you de-
scend into the Albanian Rivi-
era. This warm Mediterranean
zone has nearly 300 sunny
days a year, and the average
temperature in July is 25°C (77°
Fahrenheit). The list of places
to visit begins with the beach
of Dhraleo (Palasë) known for
its clear waters. Pompey and
his army stopped at this beach
in ancient times, when it was
known as Palestra.
