This is a mini guide to Theth, Albania. I call it a mini guide since I am only covering one location.
This guide will cover:
-Ways to get to Theth
-Where to stay in Theth
-What to do/see in Theth
-How much time to spend here
-Essential information: currency, cash, driving, getting around, weather, time to visit, stores, etc.
Theth is one of the most beautiful places we've been in Albania and the world. If you love mountains, this is your spot. It is so stunning, peaceful, and picture perfect. I highly recommend making your way to Theth if you've made it to Albania.

The branded ' Maldives of Europe' - The Albanian Riviera
Looking for Maldives or Caribbean blue seas minus the large price tag? Then Ksamil is the place for you!
This place will become more popular in the next while, which will mean the area becoming more busy and possibly an increase in the prices - so I do recommend to visit before this happens.

Having solo backpacked Albania twice, I've stayed in my fair share of hostels. That includes the good, the bad and the downright ugly.
Whilst Hostelworld ratings can be super helpful when deciding where to stay, the best hostels are spread through word-of-mouth. So here's my list of recommended hostels, which include their current HostelWorld rating and link (not an affiliate link) and my pros/cons for each hostel.
Note: The prices in this guide are reflective of the 2024 Summer Season

Did you know that Albania has some of the most beautiful beaches in Europe? Stretching down the southern coastline on the Ionian Sea, the Albanian Riviera is an adventurers dream where high mountains drastically drop to glistening turquoise pebble beaches.
This is the route I took on my Hot Mermaid Summer Solo Backpacking trip in 2022.
A hidden gym, Albania offers affordable options for solo travelers and is the perfect place to go before the rest of the world discovers its beauty!
I found Albanian culture to be fascinating due to its complex history including isolation and dictatorships. There is a lot to learn about this rather less traveled country. Albania should definitely not be over looked when planning your European summer vacation.
