Shëngjin sits on the Adriatic coastline of Albania. This particular stretch of the beach stretches from Ulqin (Ulcinj) in Montenegro to Velipojë and Shëngjin in Albania. The waters are calm and warm with some winds and waves in the afternoon. Shëngjin is too crowded in the high season (later June to August). It is also a weekend destination for Lezhë locals and popular with Kosovo tourists. To avoid the crowds and for more calm, head south near the marshes.
