This destination is popular with people from Albania (mainly from Middle and North Albania), Kosovo and North Macedonia. It is also a popular summer and weekend destination for the people of Tirana and Durrës. The estimated number of tourists, most of whom frequent the beach during the summer period, is about 600,000 a year.[2][3]
