Sektor Rinia is the desired destination for nature explorers and adventurers, as well as those looking to escape from the sea and the fresh air of the pine forest.
Unlike Durrës, which is overflowing with construction, in this area, only 17 km from the city, it seems as if time has stopped to allow nature to flourish.
The narrow and unpaved road connecting the rural area with the coast does not hinder the mass attendance at the sandy area and the bars and restaurants by the sea.
“We like the quiet. It is a favorite and beautiful place”.
“Services are excellent; everything is in order.”
“The most beautiful beach to relax. It is quiet, the water is calm”.
Sunbed fees start at 800 ALL, but there are more public spaces here than on any other beach in Durrës.
The expansive yet varied terrain creates perfect opportunities for nature exploration.
A horse ride is mainly preferred by tourists, who are amazed and intrigued by the virgin nature.
“We take tourists everywhere since my employer has a truck, and we send the horses wherever the customers want. We mostly do the Fllakë-Sektor Rinia route. We have three girls from the Netherlands today, but we have had French, German, Italian, Swiss, and Austrian customers.”
“It is a wonderful place, very different from the Netherlands. We’ve been to the beach and the mountains, and today, we’re riding horses because we love horses.”
“I love this experience; I’m having a great time. Nature and everything else are wonderful. I love horses, so this ride is perfect.”
The lagoon on both sides of the road leading to the sea offers a diversity of flora and fauna.
Locals regularly fish in the lagoon, the “home” of many birds, such as seagulls and storks.
The greatest asset of Sektor Rinia is its “green lung,” the coniferous forest.
This large natural park, which covers about 116 hectares, is perfect for organizing picnics in the fresh air in the tall pines after enjoying the coast of this area for a few hours.
