Hammamet Tourist Information - Tunisia

Hammamet is possibly the best-known resort in Tunisia. It has changed greatly from the small fishing village it once was, evolving into a sought-after holiday resort in the 1920’s. Known as the ‘garden resort’ it is backed by olive, orange and lemon groves and lines of cypress trees. Hammamet’s centre is a miniature cape jutting out into the sea with the well preserved 13th century Kasbah offering pleasing views over the gleaming domes of the Medina (the old walled city) and the white sands of the coastline. The newer quarters of Hammamet with shops, cafés and restaurants spread out from the Medina.

For refined Tunisian food with a French influence, try Les Trois Moutons or Dar Lella restaurants. Reasonably priced snacks are available in the cafés in the town centre. Afterwards head for one of the open-air nightclubs. Trains to Tunis, Sousse and El Djem leave several times a day from nearby Bir Bou Regba station. Taxis are cheap and plentiful and a noddy train runs around the resort.
