Tourist attractions Sfax

Sfax, the jewel of the Mediterranean in southern Tunisia, is a city steeped in history, culture and charm. Known as the ‘City of Walls’, Sfax is a living testimony to the region's rich Arab and Islamic heritage, with its imposing fortifications and maze of lively narrow streets.

The heart of Sfax is its Medina, an intricate network of alleyways and squares dating back to the 9th century, a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Here, visitors can lose themselves in the traditional souks, where everything from exotic spices to local handicrafts are sold.

Sfax is also an important economic and industrial centre, with a bustling port that has been a meeting point for cultures and traders from all over the Mediterranean for centuries. Visitors can explore the harbour and admire the ancient watchtowers that tower over the sea, reminders of the city's strategic importance in the past.

In addition to its rich history and vibrant city life, Sfax offers beautiful golden sandy beaches and crystal clear waters nearby, ideal for relaxing and enjoying the Mediterranean sunshine.

To visit Sfax is to immerse yourself in a world of Tunisian beauty, authenticity and hospitality, where the past meets the present in a vibrant and welcoming atmosphere. It is a destination that captivates travellers with its unique charm and fascinating blend of cultures and traditions.
