Beyond its sun-drenched beautiful beaches, Tunisia is also an exotic land of desert oases, Roman ruins, charming mosques and walled medinas. On the southern edge of the Cap Bon peninsula lies Hammamet, a well-established, cosmopolitan resort, complete with a vast sandy beach that offers a great selection of watersports. When you are not relaxing on the sands, practice your swing at the resort's two golf courses. Or immerse yourself in the local culture with a trip to the souks, where you will find everything from sparkling brass and pottery to colourful kaftans and pungent spices. Alternatively, venture further afield and take a wander round the ruins of the ancient Carthage or spend the day exploring Tunis, the country's fascinating capital. Back in the resort, there's a good selection of restaurants and open-air terraces to choose from and the hotels offer a vibrant mix of live entertainment and discos. |
