Winter moves away, the temperatures rises and the idea of spending a holiday away from crowds fills us with joy and excitement. Easter is getting closer, and we are increasingly thinking about where to travel during Easter to disconnect from the routine and get out of the stressful hustle and bustle.
However, during this holiday period almost all schools and businesses grant these days as holidays, so it is likely that if you are looking for peace and escape from crowds, you should avoid the main tourist centres, since you will not be the only one who decides to travel on these dates.
Fit2Trip suggests 8 incredible destinations with attractions and unforgettable experiences, to help you escape the crowds and at the same time we move away from the most popular sites. Here are some of the destinations less busy during Easter:
The Albanian Rivera, which is just over 100km, is located in the South of the country. It is bathed by the waters of the Ionian Sea, wonderful waters that acquire green and blue hues of dreams.

Of course, although international tourism has not yet landed in Albania, it is convenient to avoid the month of August because it is the official Albanian holiday month.
