About this spot
Sidi Fredj (Sidi Ferruch) leads Kite Jungle's Algeria ranking with about 190 windy days a year, and Spotkitesurf lists both Sidi Ferush and Sidi Fredj – Minzah.
Busy resort beach next to the marina in summer — launch away from bathers.

Needs local verification: Compiled in October 2026 from the Kite Jungle and Spotkitesurf Algeria spot lists and press coverage of the national kitesurf championship (Algerian Sailing Federation, Les Andalouses, Oran, March 2023). Riding is organised through federation sailing clubs; no commercial kite school is documented, so no spot carries a beginner label. Wind sectors are my reading of a north-facing Mediterranean coast; pins are approximate. Water temperature is a seasonal Algiers estimate.
Local hazards
