"Long wide promenade good for walking. There are a few sculptures/art works along the route and several basketball courts & play area. Restaurants next to the promenade and on the piers at the far end. The concrete pathway is bounded by the beach on one side and green area on the other but it would be nice to have a bit more shade and benches where you could sit."

"Such a great place to enjoy with friends and family. Long pedestrian street, filled with souvenirs, cafes, bars, restaurants, locals and to. The end of this street leads to the shore where another great experience may start."

"an incredibly beautiful embankment on one of the shores of the Adriatic Sea. Walking in such a place is a real pleasure! How good it is to simply enjoy this beauty, created by the «hands of the Creator». How interesting it is to watch the crowds of tourists, all so different, from different parts of the world. Dining with a view of the magnificent sea is just a fairy tale! Thank you, Durres!❤️"
