Carthage was once the ruler of the Mediterranean Seas, with its most technically advanced fleets of ships, moored in the futuristic, circular docking station, hidden behind the commercial port. The remains of this powerful city, can still be seen today, by the cruising sailman, stopping over at the modern marina of Sidi bu Said. 

The capital city, Tunis, lies only a few kms away. Bizerte is often the first port of call, for those sailing down from France and Sardinia, after stopping over at the northern island of La Galite.  Hammamet offers an ultra-modern marina and five-star hotels.

Inland and southern Tunisia also merit a visit, the cities of Kairouan, Sfax, Sousse etc.
