Djerba Island Holidays

Djerba Island Holidays – Comfortable sunny beach-based location
Djerba Island breaks are based on a large flat island off the south-east coast of Tunisia with its own airport. Djerba Island is ideal for those looking for comfortable upmarket resort hotels and a relaxing beach-based break. The island offers miles of wide soft golden sand, beautiful warm blue water and an excellent sunny climate. Most hotels here have their own private section of beach, making Djerba ideal for sunbathing, relaxation, safe swimming and snorkelling. Unspoilt beaches circle a large part of the island.

Holidays In Djerba Island – Soft golden sand and classy hotels
Aside from splendid beaches, Djerba Island holidays very much focus on modern upmarket hotels and comfortable tourist complexes on the north and east coasts of the island. The hotels here have an excellent reputation, with first-class modern facilities, restaurants and in-house entertainment which may include live music and modest discos.

Djerba Island Holidays – Explore an idiosyncratic island
While many visitors are content to while away their Djerba Island getaways in the comfort of their own beach, it’s well worth dedicating some of your  time to exploring this unusual, atmospheric, idiosyncratic island dotted with small villages, square whitewashed houses, flower-decked courtyards and diminutive mosques. Holidays on Djerba Island could include some very pleasant leisurely cycling. The terrain is perfectly flat and covered with thousands of palms, ancient olive groves and small fields of apricots, figs, lemons, mandarins and pomegranates. Djerba Island day trips could also include golf, horse riding and watersports like sailing and windsurfing. Day trip itineraries should include a visit to the small markets in Midoun and the capital Houmt Souk for copperware, jewellery, leather, pottery and unsophisticated local restaurants. The area offers plenty of excursions to low-key sights that include Roman ruins, fortresses, the mosque at Djerba, Ghriba synagogue and small villages like Ajim and Guellala. While visitors here will enjoy a special oasis atmosphere, the island is connected to the Tunisian mainland by a long causeway and regular ferries.
