Skikda has the port, but no beaches. You must board public bus waiting at abandoned rail station, pay 20 dinars and go to Stora – little fishing port just few kms away. On the way you will see first beaches along the promenade, but it is hard to say that they are nice. Stora under the high, coastal mountain with fishing boats is worth a picture. I started to climb the mountain for better views. Finally I found myself on the 100-m pass. Kiosks are selling there snacks and drinks. The paved road goes onward to the hidden in the bay cozy Plage la Carriere. View from the road is great, This beach is divided into few parts. I was walking onward. No joke! Hitchhiking is poor. Finally somebody gave me a lift to the viewpoint of Grand Plage. It is framed by coastal mountais. Grear view again. This is dead end of this road – I was forced to hitchhike back to Skikda. Great, sunny day on Algerian coast!
