Zemmouri is a town and commune in the Bordj Menaïel District of Boumerdès Province, Algeria.

[3] By the 19th century the main village, slightly further inland, was known as Zemmouri (usually spelled Zamouri or Zemouri at the time).

The disastrous 2003 Boumerdès earthquake led to the discovery of a thrust fault; it was subsequently named after the town.

The fault has since been incorporated into seismic hazard maps, which will serve as an important guideline for public safety.

[6] To the northwest of the town, the Sahel Forest and the coastal dunes on which it grows are dominated by Aleppo pine and other Mediterranean maquis flora, and constitute a tourist attraction.
