Sidi Mahrez Beach
شاطئ سيدي محرز
The island's best-known stretch of fine white sand in the northeast, lined with large resort hotels and shallow, calm water.
Sidi Mahrez Beach (شاطئ سيدي محرز) stretches more than 10 km from east of Houmt Souk to the north side of Midoun, with fine sand and shallow water. It is the most concentrated resort area on Djerba, known as the Zone Touristique (tourist zone). Water activities include camel and horse riding, paragliding and motorboat rides. Most hotels have private beach sections, while public stretches are free. A tourist train and taxis link the central part of the island, and the airport is about 25 minutes' drive away. Summer UV is strong, and seaweed season occasionally brings drifting debris. Agree on prices before booking camel rides or other activities.
