A slightly distant port side view, taken from abaft the beam, of the Orient Line cruise ship Otranto (1925) berthed stern-on to a quay in Algiers harbour, Algeria. She has both of her bow anchors deployed and is flying the Blue Peter from the starboard yardarm on her foremast. Seaboat number 4 has been swung out and lowered to boat deck level. An unidentified 2-funnelled French cross Mediterranean passenger ship is alongside a wharf in the foreground.
