More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the shuttle in Hammamet and the sea greets you with a cool, saline breath — a bright cliff of white hotels and a ribbon of sand framed by orange trees. Over five days this coastline becomes a measured pace of discovery: sunlit baths at Korbous, Roman stone at Zaghouan’s Temple of Waters, and the blue-and-white lanes of Sidi Bou Saïd that lean toward the Gulf of Tunis.
