Ulcinj Улцињ
POP 10,700
If you want a feel of Albania without actually crossing the border, buzzy Ulcinj's the
place to go. The population is 61% Albanian (68% Muslim) and in summertime it swells
with Kosovar holidaymakers for the simple reason that it's a hell of a lot nicer than any
of the Albanian seaside towns. The elegant minarets of numerous mosques give Ulcinj
(Ulqin in Albanian) a distinctly Eastern feel, as does the lively music echoing out of the
kebab stands around Mala Plaža (Small Beach).
