la crique I
La crique I extends along the Algerian Mediterranean coast, in the immediate vicinity of the Bay of Dellys, in the Boumerdès wilaya. This stretch of coastline is part of a chain of small coves and beaches that punctuate this section of the Maghreb, characterized by limestone cliffs dropping directly into the sea and crystal-clear waters typical of the northern Mediterranean. The area, dominated by karstic geology, offers a succession of natural micro-bays, of which cove I represents one of the most accessible entrances. Backed by sparse Mediterranean vegetation, this small beach is distinguished by its relative intimacy within a fragmented coastline. Just 200 meters from Cove II and 500 meters from Ouled Bounar Beach, it benefits from an intermediate position in this dense coastal network. The atmosphere remains tranquil, far from massive seaside facilities, with limestone rocks framing a narrow strip of sand where shallow waters invite summer swimming. The site retains a wild, undeveloped character, reflecting the natural state of many coves in this region. No permanent facilities are reported on site. Swimming is unsupervised. Access remains rudimentary, without facilities for people with reduced mobility. Blue Flag status does not apply to this site. Those considering a visit should plan for complete self-sufficiency, both for equipment and safety, and favor the summer periods when weather conditions are stable.
About this spot
The name 'cove' directly refers to the local geomorphology: these small natural bays result from the differential erosion of the Jurassic limestones that make up the Boumerdès coastline. The region, historically crossed by Mediterranean trade routes, has seen human settlements flourish along its coast since antiquity. Dellys, an ancient Phoenician and Roman port, remains the major historical reference point. These coves, simply numbered (I, II), reflect a local administrative classification rather than an established tourist nomenclature, testifying to the underdeveloped nature of the area. Local fishermen know these natural anchorages well, where sandy and rocky bottoms offer seasonal fishing resources.
