Where to stay in Zarzis
Zarzis (Jarjis in Arabic) is a coastal town in south-east Tunisia, on the peninsula that bears its name, on the mainland facing the island of Djerba. Olive groves cover the peninsula, and olive oil, fishing and tourism are the mainstays of the local economy.
Most of the big hotels are in the tourist zone, which starts a few kilometres north of the town centre, towards Souihel, along a wide sandy beach. Many are all-inclusive, with pools and entertainment; some also have a spa or a thalassotherapy centre.
Zarzis suits a quiet beach holiday. To stay on the island itself, near the souks of Houmt Souk or the Midoun tourist zone, see our Djerba hotels page instead.
Things to do in Zarzis and the south
Relax on the wide sandy beach of the tourist zone, stroll around the fishing port and visit an olive oil mill to see how the peninsula's main product is made.
Drive over to Djerba on the El Kantara causeway, the Roman-built road that links the island to the mainland, for the souks of Houmt Souk and the island's villages and beaches.
Visit the remains of Gigthis, a Punic and Roman site on the Gulf of Boughrara, facing Djerba, and take day trips into southern Tunisia: the troglodyte houses of Matmata and the ksour (fortified villages) around Tataouine.
