What to pack for Algeria in the summer

In Algeria during the summer, it is important to pack lightweight and breathable clothing due to the high temperatures.

Loose-fitting clothes made of natural fibers such as cotton and linen are recommended to help stay cool and comfortable in the heat.

Short-sleeved shirts, shorts, and sundresses are ideal for daytime activities. However, it is also important to pack modest clothing, such as long skirts and pants, as Algeria is a predominantly Muslim country and it is respectful to dress modestly, especially when visiting religious sites or more conservative areas.

Additionally, it is advisable to bring a wide-brimmed hat, sunglasses, and sunscreen to protect yourself from the strong sun.

In the summer, Algeria experiences a hot and arid climate with temperatures frequently exceeding 100°F (38°C) in the interior regions.

The coastal areas typically have a more moderate climate, with temperatures ranging between 75-85°F (24-29°C), and lower humidity levels.

Sandstorms and droughts are also common during the summer months, particularly in the southern desert regions.
