Mahdia beaches

Mahdia is popular among tourists due to its white sand beaches. Usually it is not crowded, so in this area will feel comfortable connoisseurs of secluded rest, as well as for a relaxing holiday with the whole family.

Stretching along the coast for three kilometers, beaches with beautiful white sand have long become a real hallmark of Mahdia. Most hotels are located right on the beach, and the territory of the beaches is equipped with everything necessary for active recreation. However, there are also stretches of beach designed for lovers of swimming alone.

In addition to the developed tourism industry, Mahdia is one of the main fishing centers of Tunisia. Tourists can try a variety of fish dishes, including traditional cuisine and original recipes. Mahdia is the only region in Tunisia where even traditional couscous is cooked with fish (in the original, lamb or vegetables are used). In addition to fishing, Mahdia is also famous as a center of silk weaving. Local craftsmen weave magnificent wedding clothes - a subject of special national pride.
