Annaba: Between Golden Beaches and Millennia-Old Heritage

Annaba tourism is a journey between golden beaches, ancient ruins, and vibrant city life. Located in the far northeast of Algeria, Annaba charms visitors with its Roman past, Mediterranean atmosphere, and perfect balance of sea, nature, and modern living.

An Exceptional Ancient and Religious Past

Hippo Regius – Roman Annaba
Once a thriving Roman city, Hippo still reveals the remains of a forum, theatre, and baths. It was also the episcopal seat of Saint Augustine, one of the greatest thinkers of early Christianity.

Saint Augustine Basilica
Set on a hilltop overlooking the city and the sea, this majestic church blends Byzantine and Moorish styles and stands as a spiritual and cultural landmark.

Beaches and the Mediterranean Sea

Idyllic Beaches
Hikers, families, and swimmers flock to beaches such as La Caroube, Ras El Hamra, Aïn Achir, and Chétaïbi, all known for their clear waters and natural setting.

Marine Activities
Artisanal fishing, boat trips, scuba diving, or relaxing in hidden coves—the sea is central to everyday life in Annaba.

Nature and Mountain Getaways

Edough and Seraïdi
The forested Edough massif offers spectacular views over Annaba’s bay. The mountain village of Seraïdi is a cool, picturesque retreat, especially popular in summer.

Lallelick Forest
Perfect for hikes, picnics, and observing local flora.

A Modern, Cultural, and Lively City

Bustling Downtown
Annaba combines colonial elegance—tree-lined boulevards and Haussmann-style buildings—with modern cafés, universities, and shopping galleries.

Music Scene and Events
Chaâbi music, raï, summer concerts, and literary or artistic festivals keep the city buzzing with culture.

Maritime and Oriental Gastronomy

  • Grilled fish, shrimp Provençal, and seafood tagines served with Mediterranean vegetables
  • Chorba Annabi, rechta, brik with egg, and couscous with fish
  • Fine pastries scented with orange blossom and stuffed dates
