The Algerian coastline stretches for 1,200 kilometers of fine sand beaches with turquoise waters. It shelters along its route the main cities of the country with grandiose architecture and splendid natural sites. The coastal zone is today one of the most touristic in the country.
From Algiers the White to Oran the Radiant, via Annaba and the creeks of Kabylia, the coastline is undoubtedly the preferred destination for swimmers, hikers, fishing enthusiasts and water sports enthusiasts. Tourist activity in this part of Algeria does not come at the expense of preserving marine fauna and flora, making this place a true haven of peace.
The Algerian coastline is also rich in history. Many archaeological sites dating back to Antiquity or the Ottoman era are scattered along the sea, constituting a source of wonder for walkers, swimmers, fishermen and water sports enthusiasts.
If you arrive by sea, you will inevitably be amazed by the mountains that overlook the coastline. A unique landscape of its kind, enhanced by the beauty of the golden sand and pebble beaches.
The Algerian coastline is full of places where the sea meets the mountains to create a striking surreal tableau.
In addition to swimming and relaxation, charming and picturesque destinations await vacationers, such as the town of La Cala with its turquoise waters and coral riches, and its creeks that follow one another in a sumptuous spectacle to dazzle the eyes with its charms.
