Bardaï is a small town and oasis in the extreme north of Chad. It is the main town of the Tibesti Region, which was formed in 2008 from the Tibesti Department of the former Bourkou-Ennedi-Tibesti region.
Bardaï came to international attention in 1974, when a rebel group, led by Hissène Habré, attacked the town and captured a French archeologist, Françoise Claustre, and two other European citizens.
The town is served by Zougra Airport.
