Corniche Oranaise (Aïn El Turck)
Corniche oranaise – Aïn El Turck
A string of beaches and holiday towns west of Oran forming the Oran Corniche, the busiest summer resort area.
Heading west from Oran through Mers el-Kébir to Aïn El Turck, a coastal road links a chain of beaches, seafood restaurants and resorts, collectively known as the Oran Corniche. Aïn El Turck is the core town. In summer its hotels, night markets and beaches are very busy, and grilled fish and seafood are the local specialties. It lies about 15 km from the city center and is served by buses and taxis, though traffic jams are common on peak-season weekends.
