Hammamet

Jasmine flooding throughout the city are the first encounter with ancient ties between Spain and Tunisia. Decorating hidden recesses is also the raw material of many objects that offer local artisans and shops. The jasmine brought ancient travelers coming from Al Andalus and despite not being a native spice such is their mark, even the tourist area of Yasmine Hammamet, is named after this plant.

But besides Jasmine travelers will find wonderful beaches, lush gardens littered with orange trees and bougainvillea and a unique geographical situation that the Romans realized giving the character of Cologne, due to its strategic position only 182 kilometers from Sicily.

The jasmine flowers that cover the whole city are from the time of the ancient traveller to the city from Al Andalus. So abundant in fact,that the travellers bringing this species of plant (not native to the area)from Spain to Tunisia changed the name of the city to Jasmine Hammamet. In this colourful city you’ll find handcrafted artefacts and a multitude of shops.

Other than shops and jasmine of course you’ll discover why this area is known as the “Tunisian Saint Tropez” a tourist haven with it’s beautiful beaches, white sands and fantastic offering for sports fans with some fantastic golf courses, 2 of which are known to be of the best in the world. Where else can the golf enthusiast work on their handicap amongst white sand dunes and feet away from the lapping Mediterranean?

You can also enjoy a vibrant nightlife with it’s morrocan influences also to be found in the Tunisian cuisine, where you’ll get the best of both worlds with fish and pasta just as at home on the dinner table as couscous.
