Dhërmi is the first beach you reach coming down from the Llogara Pass: a long sweep of white pebbles and very clear water, with an old stone village and churches climbing the hill behind.
In high summer it's the Riviera's liveliest spot, with beach bars and music festivals. In June and September it's calm, warm and much cheaper.
