Promenade des Sablettes
منتزه الصابلات
A newly developed seaside park several kilometers long on the east side of the city, with a beach, walking paths, a Ferris wheel, and cafés. Visitors can look out over the lit-up Grand Mosque and the bay at night.
The Promenade des Sablettes is a large seaside park that Algiers has developed in recent years. It runs from the Hamma district to the Hussein Dey district. Along its length you'll find an artificial beach, cycling and running paths, a children's play area, a Ferris wheel, cafés, and a small marina. Local families gather here in the evening and at night, and the sea breeze is refreshing. To the east you can see the illuminated minaret of the Grand Mosque, and to the west the Martyrs' Memorial and the old town. You can reach it by metro or taxi. Admission is free. It makes a relaxing stop after visiting the Grand Mosque or the Botanical Garden.
