Tunisia Overview
Tunisia is the meeting point of a multitude of different cultures, from the fresh Mediterranean cuisine to eastern-inspired Arabic buildings all situated in the dramatic scenery of north Africa. Luckily, it's this combination that makes holidays here so mesmerising. The northern holiday resorts of Tunisia are all grouped around the Gulf of Hammamet, a pleasantly warm stretch of coastline which looks out onto the Mediterranean Sea. It's here you'll discover the stylish marina of Yasmine Hammamet, the bustling markets of Skanes/Monastir and the cultural sights of Sousse. And it's not all about authentic experiences here, there's just as much family fun to be had in huge theme parks, exotic zoos and vibrant water slides found along this sunny stretch of Tunisia. But if you're looking for a contrast and a complete change of pace, there's surely nowhere more relaxing than Djerba. This peaceful island close to the southern coast of Tunisia has lots to recommend in its cotton-white beaches and stunning natural landscapes. Whether you're looking for all-action fun or pure relaxation on your holiday, you'll certainly find both in Tunisia. Read on to discover more about each resort:
