Holidays in Jerbe
Jerba's a paradise for the beach recreation. This island has been visited by Odyssey, and this is where he almost lost the entire team enchanted by the lotofago songs. Jerb is located near the south-east coast of Tunisia. Round year, you're waiting for sunshine, soft climate and great beaches.
The coastline of the island is 120 km, an area of about 538 square kilometres.
Jerba's plays are diverse and interesting. In the east, the beaches go smoothly to olive groves and fruit gardens, and in the west there are many marshmallows that attract a lot of birds. There are virtually no fresh water resources on the island, so in local villages, draw attention to traditional rainwater harvesting systems - cement scatters and vomits.
The main city of Jerba is Humt Sook, which means a “trade block”. It's worth a visit to the traditional Medina where you can buy souvenirs and try the local kitchen. There are several mosques of sight in the city (with different Islamic currents), Borg Ghazi Mustafa and Borg El Quebir (the Big Tower).
There is also one of the world ' s oldest synagogues in the island, Griba, the pilgrimage of Jews from all over the world.
Of the entertainment, mention is made of the largest crocodile farm in the Mediterranean, where reptiles can be seen with special bridges.
There's a diving club with training and an excellent golf club with liver dunes.
