The Truth About Sailing in Albania: Our First Week Here Broke Us

Описание: We wanted to like it, we really did, but a week sailing in Albania and we can't wait to leave.

Before we sailed to Albania from Montenegro. We had read a lot online about the challenges and pitfalls of sailing in Albania. We had also spoken to many people cruising the Mediterranean who planned to skip Albania entirely.

Prissy sailors, we thought, they didn't know how to hack it in a developing country. They weren't true travelers like us. It would be a different story for us. After all, we had already spent so much time backpacking through the Balkans, traveling through Mexico and South America by van, and motorbiking through South-East Asia, sailing the coast of Albania would be a walk in the park.

But we were wrong, and they were right. Our first week sees us walking that smugness back as the challenging conditions of travelling by sailboat in the north of Albania break us.
