Albania's Adriatic coastline lies mainly on the eastern side of the Adriatic Sea, starting at the edge of the Buna River estuary, where the designated boundary line with Montenegro is drawn and stretches all the way down toward the Karaburun Peninsula, where Gjuhëza Cape is its westernmost point. Numerous rivers flowing into the Adriatic Sea form bays, lagoons and inlets. The sand and silt they bring are deposited in areas of reduced flow, which form the sides of the bays, with narrow swales. The total length of the coastline is approximately 274 kilometres (170 mi), 178 kilometres (111 mi) of which consist of mainly white sandy beaches and the rest of various landforms of the sea coast. The most popular beaches by number of visitors include Durrës, Golem, Lalzi Bay, Shëngjin, Velipojë, Spille, etc.[2]
