Tunisia
Tunisia, in Northern Africa, is a traditionally popular destination for sun-seekers flocking to its impressive beaches as Tunisia’s coastline runs along the Mediterranean Sea. There are many modern and luxurious resorts, and whether you want to spend the entire holiday on a sun lounger or get out and about and explore your destination, Tunisia has much to offer. Most visitors stay within the North, which includes the capital, Tunis, and you are advised to avoid the areas bordering Algeria and Libya for safety reasons.
