Pogradec Videos

During a visit to Macedonia in March 2012, my girlfriend and I hired a taxi for the day to take us from Ohrid across the border into Albania.

One of our stops in Albania was Pogradec; the largest town on the Albanian shores of Lake Ohrid.

Pogradec has a long sand and shale beach and a pleasant lakeside promenade. At the time of our visit, the weather was warm and sunny but the surrounding mountains were still topped with snow.

This made for some wonderful photographs with colourful wooden fishing boats sitting on the sands against a backdrop of the crystal clear Lake Ohrid, perfect blue skies and snow-capped mountains.

I recorded this short video while standing on the beach.
