Durrës is Albania's second-largest city and its main seaport, about 35 km west of Tirana. It combines a working city that is lived in all year round with one of the longest sandy beaches on the Adriatic, which runs south from the centre towards Golem. That mix makes Durrës the most active coastal property market in Albania, attracting buyers who want a holiday apartment, a rental investment or a permanent home within easy reach of the capital.
Most of our listings here are modern apartments in new or recently completed buildings, many with sea views and within walking distance of the beach, along with a smaller number of villas and family homes. Prices are generally lower than in Tirana or on the southern Riviera, which makes Durrës a natural first step for many buyers.

Where to buy in Durrës
Durrës city centre
The historic heart of the city around the Roman amphitheatre, the Venetian tower and the seafront promenade. Shops, restaurants, schools and services are open all year, so this is the best choice for buyers who plan to live here permanently.
Durrës beach
The long beachfront strip south-east of the port, lined with apartment buildings, hotels and beach bars. Direct beach access makes apartments here especially popular for summer holiday lets.
Golem
A resort area roughly 15 km south of the centre, with shallow sandy beaches and a strip of newer apartment complexes. Very popular for summer rentals and with buyers looking for a beachfront apartment at an accessible price.
Shkëmbi i Kavajës & San Pietro
Quieter stretches of coast further south, with resort-style developments, gardens and pools – suited to buyers who prefer a calmer setting away from the city.

Buying in Durrës: common questions
Is Durrës a good place for rental income?+

Can foreigners buy property in Albania?+
Yes. Foreign citizens can buy apartments, houses and commercial property in Albania in their own name; restrictions apply mainly to agricultural land. We work with local lawyers and notaries on every purchase – read our guide to secure property transactions.
