Hammamet is a coastal town in the Nabeul Governorate of Tunisia. It is a charming beach town where one can enjoy the sun, the sea and the sand.

This former small fishing village was “discovered” by adventurous travellers who unearthed its silky sands and soon after in the 1960’s, the first tourist hotels were built.

Hammamet is particularly known for jasmine, a genus of shrubs and vines in the olive family of Oleaceae. Jasmines are widely cultivated for their characteristic fragrance, and souvenirs crafted from jasmine can be found all over Hammamet.

Whether you want to explore the ancient ruins and exotic markets, relax on the white-sand beaches, or try some water sports, Hammamet has something for everyone.

You can visit the Medina Mediterrane, a replica of a traditional Tunisian town, where you can shop for souvenirs, watch cultural shows and dine at authentic restaurants.

You can also have fun at Carthage Land, a theme park inspired by the ancient Carthaginian civilization, or at Yasmine Beach, a lively spot with bars, clubs and entertainment. Hammamet is a perfect destination for a memorable holiday in Tunisia.
