Sousse holidays

Sousse, Tunisia

Holidays to Sousse line up luxury hotels, a medina filled with ancient sights and shops that stock an Aladdin's cave of keepsakes.

Old meets new

Sousse is Tunisia’s third-biggest city, with a past dating back 3,000 years. A UNESCO-rated medina and a fortress cover off historic sightseeing, while a collection of modern hotels bring the resort into the 21st century.

The beach

Boujaafar Beach has 10 kilometres of sugar-soft sand, curling around the Gulf of Hammamet all the way up to Port El Kantaoui, a purpose-built resort just north of Sousse. There’s parasailing, windsurfing and jet-skis up for grabs. And the main section of the beach is backed by a restaurant-dotted esplanade.

Medinas and marinas

The 1,200-year-old medina is a popular place to pop to. It’s home to souks, packed with leather goods and Berber rugs, and a time-worn kasbah. Alternatively, Port El Kantaoui’s smart marina and a handful of nightclubs are a 10-minute drive north.
