Golf Courses
Golf Citrus: Les Oliviers
Designed by Ronald Fream, it is beautifully located around an ancient olive grove. On windy days, you can hear the rustling of the leaves of the centuries-old olive trees that line the fairways. There are also some strategically placed olive trees along the fairways, which you won't want to get lost behind. Although they say trees are mostly made of air, the olive trees seem to fill the space completely. The first nine holes are played on partially flat terrain among olive trees in a beautiful landscape. The start is relatively easy, but there are still challenges. It is important to stay on the fairway if you want to return to the clubhouse after nine holes with a good score. The course changes character as the final nine holes are played. Although there are still olive trees, several fairways are also lined with beautiful palm trees, and the landscape features steeper elevation changes. Play becomes a bit more demanding, and any mistake can be fatal. The course has several excellent fairways where you hit your ball higher and can see the fairway opening up before you. A good example of this is the fairway on the par-5 15th hole. With a good tailwind and a good curve along the fairway, it can be reached in two shots. However, it's important to avoid hitting to the left, and when approaching the green, be careful, as there's a water hazard and a strategically placed bunker in front of it that must be avoided. Les Olivies isn't a short course, but its relatively wide fairways make it suitable for players with a slightly higher handicap.

Golf Citrus: La Fôret
La Forêt, or forest course in French, is a varied and fun course to play. It is definitely more challenging than its sister course Les Olivies and also requires more strategic play. When you step onto the tee, it feels natural to choose the driver on most fairways, but you have to think twice, as an expected birdie or par can quickly turn into an annoying double bogey. The course's namesake fairway is the sixth fairway, which is a very good par 3. Experienced golf architect Ronald Fream has designed the fairway here to be suitable for the level of the leisure golfer. There is no water hazard, but the green feels like an island. From the yellow tee, the player has to hit over a ravine and bunker before reaching the green. The fairway is just over 120 meters long, and the women's tees are cleverly placed so that you don't have to cross the ravine, and even with a less successful shot you can make par with a chip and putt. Immediately after this beautiful, yet relatively easy par 3 is the most difficult fairway on the course, with an index of 1. So there is a good mix of different fairways and difficulty levels here. The favorite fairway for many is fairway 12, where a long-hitting player can reach this great par 5 in two strokes. However, it does come with certain risks, and even if a shot hits the middle of the fairway, the green is well protected and has no less than seven bunkers around it.

Wander Around in the Hammamet Medina
The Hammamet Medina is one of the main tourist attractions in town. It is smaller than a lot of other Medinas I’ve seen in Tunisia. The old city walls form a rectangle around the old city, along the water. The medina itself is quite beautiful, with several arched entryways and cobblestone streets. You can find the souk inside the medina, which is the Hamammet market.
Enjoy the views From the Kasbah
You can see the Kasbah Hammamet from anywhere in the city, as it is the tallest building in town. What makes this kasbah unique is the cafe on the rooftop. I went up to the highest point and enjoyed a mint tea while staring out at the sea. It created a special moment, as I could enjoy the kasbah more fully. It was better than just walking around and leaving. The other unique thing about this kasbah is that many tall trees are growing in the center courtyard.
Stroll the Medina Mediterranea
The Medina Mediterranea is located in the Yasmine Hammemet area. It was created for tourists in the 1990s, attempting to imitate Port Kantoui in Sousse. It is meant to emulate a traditional Tunisian medina.
Go Back in Time at the Pupput Ruins
Pupput, located in Yasmine Hammamet, is a captivating archaeological site that transports visitors back in time to the ancient Roman era. This historical treasure is renowned for its well-preserved ruins, which include remnants of a Roman villa, intricate mosaics, and ancient baths, providing a unique window into the past. While wandering through the site, tourists can marvel at the craftsmanship of the mosaics that depict various scenes of daily life and mythology, showcasing the artistic talents of the time. The peaceful ambiance of the site, combined with its scenic views of the Mediterranean Sea, makes it an enchanting spot for photography, leisurely strolls, and quiet contemplation.
Visit the George Sebastian Villa
The George Sebastian Villa in Hammamet, Tunisia, is a stunning example of Mediterranean architecture with a fascinating backstory. Built in 1927 by Romanian millionaire George Sebastian, the villa blends traditional Tunisian design with modernist influences and has become a cultural landmark. Highlights of the villa include: White colonnades and terraces that reflect the local architectural style. A 17-hectare botanical garden with over 300 plant species, inspired by traditional Tunisian orchards. A Greek-style amphitheatre, added in 1964, which hosts the Festival International de Hammamet every summer. Today, the villa serves as the Centre Culturel International de Hammamet, hosting art exhibitions, performances, and cultural events. Despite its grandeur, some visitors note that the site could benefit from better maintenance and clearer signage
Visit Nabeul and Cap Bon
A promontory pointed towards Sicily, the Cap Bon region is a vast garden where orange and lemon trees put out their flowers in the middle of winter. Its beaches of fine sand are among the most beautiful in Tunisia. The principal town of Cap Bon, Nabeul is famous for its pottery, its rush mats and its flower essences. The fishing port of Kelibia, the thermal springs of Korbous, the falconers of El Haouaria are just a few of the curiosities found in the region.
