Hotels near Mirror Beach (Pasqyra)

Mirror Beach, or Plazhi i Pasqyres, lies on the coast road between Saranda and Ksamil and takes its name from the glassy clarity of its water. A pretty cove of pale pebbles and sand, it is smaller and often calmer than the busy Ksamil beaches just beyond.

Sheltered by low headlands, the bay has exceptionally transparent shallows that make it a favourite for snorkelling and swimming. A beach bar provides loungers and refreshments in season, and the setting is a lovely place to break the journey south.

Pro Tip: Ask the Ksamil furgon to drop you at Pasqyra on the way. It gets busy midday in summer, so arrive early, and bring water shoes for the pebbly entry.
