Hammamet —
A dreamy fusion of Mediterranean charm and North African allure, Hammamet is where sun-soaked beaches meet a labyrinthine medina, all wrapped in the scent of jasmine and sea breeze. Once a humble fishing village, this coastal retreat has blossomed into Tunisia’s most glamorous seaside escape.
Must-sees:
- The Medina: Lose yourself in a maze of whitewashed alleyways, where vibrant souks brim with handwoven carpets, intricate ceramics, and fragrant spices.
- Hammamet Beach: Powdery golden sands and turquoise waters set the scene for lazy sunbathing, exhilarating water sports, or a sunset stroll along the coast.
- Nabeul Market: A short hop away, this colourful bazaar is the beating heart of local craftsmanship, famed for its dazzling pottery and lively atmosphere.
Culinary culture:
Tunisian cuisine is a flavourful mix of Berber, Arab, and Mediterranean influences. Savour hearty dishes like couscous, with vegetables and lamb, or try brik, a savoury pastry filled with egg and tuna, perfect for a light snack. For something sweet, indulge in a piece of baklava, dripping with honey and pistachios. Don’t forget to treat yourself to a glass of mint tea or a chilled glass of fresh orange juice, the perfect antidote to Hammamet’s warm days.
Dive deeper:
For a glimpse into Tunisia’s mystical past, visit the ruins of Pupput, a lesser-known Roman site where weathered mosaics whisper stories of ancient life. Alternatively, experience the time-honoured art of olive oil production, a tradition dating back to Carthaginian times, with tastings at a countryside farm.
Good to know:
Tunisia’s currency is the Tunisian Dinar (TND). While Hammamet enjoys sunshine nearly year-round, spring and autumn are ideal for avoiding peak summer heat.
