48 Hours on the Albanian Riviera

48 Hours on the Albanian Riviera

Where long days turn into longer nights.
A guide for the girl whose bikini doubles as her best outfit.

The Albanian Riviera is Europe’s best-kept summer secret —
South-of-France energy without the crowds or attitude.

Think: beach clubs, spritzes at sunset, and music that lasts past midnight.

DAY ONE — HIMARË

Check-in + Espresso + First Swim

Arrive in Himarë.
Drop your bags, change into your bikini, and let the sun take over.

Bikini for arrival:
St. Tropez Set — Vanilla 
Minimal, effortless, the perfect “vacation has started” bikini.

Beach Club: Jale Beach

Jale is the social spot — music, clear water, beautiful people.
Reserve a cabana at Folie Marine Beach Club, the Riviera’s upscale hot spot.

Aperol spritz → swim → repeat.

Dinner + Drinks

Dinner at Restaurant Piazza Himarë overlooking the promenade.
Seafood pasta, olive oil, chilled local wine.

Then head to a beachfront bar — barefoot in the sand, salty hair, no shoes necessary.

Bikini for spritz hour:
Bonita Set — Sapphire 
Sculpted, supportive, very “luxury Mediterranean.”

DAY TWO — BEACH CLUB + NIGHT OUT

Morning — Pool Day at Havana Beach Bar (Palasë)

Drive to Palasë Beach and spend the day between the pool, the sea, and the bar.
Bright blue water, loungers, DJ — effortless European summer.

Fruit plates, chilled wine, glossy skin.

Bikini:
Merlot Set 
Sleek and tan-line friendly. Add gold hoops and you’re done.

Late Afternoon — Llogara Pass

Stop at the panoramic viewpoint — the sun hits the coastline just right.

Every photo looks editorial.

Night — Folie Terrace 

Back to Jale for Folie Terrace — open-air club on the cliffs.
Dance under the stars with the sea breeze in your hair.

Minimum outfit required.
Your bikini is the outfit.

Style tip:
Merlot bandeau + linen pants + after-sun glow = effortless.

WHY WE LOVE IT

If you want:

☀️ turquoise water
🍹 cocktails at noon
🎶 music at night
👙 swimwear as your uniform

The Albanian Riviera is where it happens.

Sun-kissed days. Champagne nights.

Just like Diell — made for eternal summers.
