Hammamet

Hammamet is truly a Mediterranean diamond in the ruff. The Gulf of Hamammet shelters miles of fantastic beaches, modern hotels, seaside cafes, and hospitable residents. For the historically inclined visitor there are several ancient Roman ruins and a Roman theatre to explore. For those looking for relaxation there are watersports, fashionable boutiques, market stalls selling Tunisian crafts, and festivals to make your stay here a memorable one. Hammamet's modern town is truly all about tourism, with pedestrian-friendly streets and boulevards lined with restaurants and shops. The famous architect Frank Lloyd Wright has allegedly said that the villa of George Sebastian from the 1920's was the most beautiful house he knew of. Today it is a cultural center, and open for visitors.
