Beni Saf (Arabic: بني صاف) is a town in northwestern Algeria, about 80 kilometers southwest of Oran. The town was founded in 1876 as a shipping port for iron ore, which is mined just south of the town. Other products of the town include zinc, marble and onyx, and the fishing industry is extensive.
The Medgaz natural gas pipeline links Beni Saf to the Playa del Perdigal [es] in Almería, Spain.[3]
