Beach near Constantine, Algeria

Constantine Travel Guide

Algeria

Constantine is a city of around 450,000 people in north-eastern Algeria. It is an inland city, known for its dramatic setting on a rocky plateau and its role as a major urban centre in the region.

Most visitors arrive by air via Mohamed Boudiaf International Airport (CZL). Constantine is not a beach destination, and there are no notable named beaches within 40 kilometres, so plan coastal trips separately rather than treating the city as a base for the seaside.
