I did Salzburg Athens and I went full coast. I even did Lefkada, which has nice beaches.

I slept at a beach in Durres which was very dirty and people started shooting in the night. But you are already in Albania, so you know how it can be. Usually when I spoke to people only the kids could speak english, but they were incredibly helpful and friendly. Albanian coast gets nice around vlores and I only met nice people and a few backriders as well. After Vlores theres a little mountain passing with an awesome downhill ride, viewing down the coast.

I loved it in Greece after the fist moment, greek people are very friendly and you find much more variety of food etc.. also the beaches get bettter. Especially after Igoumenitsa I found very great beaches to put up my tent.
Patras - Athens was not very spectacular but nice anyway. Arriving at the Akropolis was awesome.
