Chott Ech Chergui (Arabic: شط الشرقي) is a large endorheic salt lake in Saïda Province, northwestern Algeria.

Chott Ech Chergui has an area of about 2000 km2 where water collects during the wet season, forming a number of large shallow salt lakes which become salt flats as they dry.

The lake area has a length of about 160 km from ENE to WSW and lies at an average elevation of 1000 m.[3] Chott Ech Chergui has been designated a Ramsar wetland of international importance.

The Ramsar site has an area of 8555 km2 and is the natural environment for a number of threatened and vulnerable animal and plant species.
