Albania's romantic register is the wild and undervisited version of Mediterranean Europe. The Albanian Riviera — clifftop villages above an impossibly blue Ionian coast, with almost no development and very few other tourists — is the honeymoon beach destination for couples who find the Greek and Croatian equivalents too crowded. The Valbona Valley in the Accursed Mountains, with its glacier-carved terrain, traditional guesthouses, and complete quiet, is the trekking honeymoon for couples who want alpine landscape without alpine infrastructure. Berat at night, the 'city of a thousand windows' lit above the river, is a dinner backdrop of considerable beauty. For couples who travel to discover rather than to confirm, Albania is consistently rewarding. Take it all in.
