Skikda Strawberry Festival in Skikda
A spring harvest festival in Skikda, a Mediterranean coastal city with roots as the ancient port of Rusicade, celebrating the region's strawberry crop through agricultural displays, tastings and craft markets that showcase Algeria's coastal agricultural diversity beyond its better-known Saharan date harvest festivals further south.
Skikda's Mediterranean coastal microclimate supports strawberry cultivation in the spring months, and this harvest festival celebrates a crop that has become a notable specialty of the surrounding agricultural areas along Algeria's northeastern coast.
