Béchar Travel Guide
Algeria
Béchar is a city of 143,382 people in western Algeria, in the Sahara region. It is an inland destination rather than a coastal resort, so the surrounding landscape is desert rather than beachfront.
Most air travellers arrive through Boudghene Ben Ali Lotfi Airport, which serves Béchar. There are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres of the city, so beach trips are not a practical part of a short visit.
