Mateus beach
Mateus beach folds into the coastline south of Himarë, one of the smaller coves that doesn't show up on most itineraries and hasn't yet built up a review history to match. The shore mixes sand and pebble underfoot, typical of this stretch of Riviera where each bay behind a headland tends to differ from the last. Without past visitors' comments to draw on, treat it as a scouting trip: pack water shoes for the transition zone near the waterline and don't expect facilities beyond what you bring yourself.

HimarëPlazhi i Livadhit
The name means 'meadow,' and Plazhi i Livadhit lives up to it with a backdrop of green terraces behind its pebble shoreline, a contrast to the bare limestone that frames most of Himarë's coast. It sits along the town's edge rather than deep in the surrounding hills, so it is easy to reach without giving up the quieter, less commercial feel that draws people past the main Himarë beach in the first place. Expect loose stones underfoot rather than sand, and pack accordingly.
HimarëPlazhi i Filikurit
Plazhi i Filikurit lies along the Himarë stretch of the Albanian Riviera, one of the smaller coves tucked between the region's headline beaches rather than sitting on the main coastal road itself. The shoreline mixes sand and pebble, and with no reviews on record yet, it stays off most itineraries built around Himarë's better-marketed neighbours. Worth the detour if solitude matters more to you than a beach bar within easy reach.
Himarë4.5Foile Marina
Foile Marina — better known locally as Livadhi Beach, about ten minutes' drive from central Himarë — spreads out with enough room that public and private sunbed sections sit side by side without crowding each other, backed by markets, restaurants and beach bars that make a full day here easy to manage. Free parking sits right across from the sand, a real advantage for anyone travelling with kids or older relatives, and hikers reach it via a trail from Himarë rated intermediate rather than easy. Reviewers keep coming back for the mountain backdrop as much as the water.
