Why we like it
We appreciate that Pulëbardha delivers the straightforward appeal of a working beach — no pretense, just swimming, sunbathing, and the practical amenities that make a day on pebbles comfortable. It's busy, especially at peak times, but that crowds-and-convenience trade-off is honest; you know what you're getting.
