Beaches, Towns, and Where to Stay

The region of Hammamet is split across key areas, including the main town of Hammamet itself and the purpose-built tourist hub of Yasmine Hammamet. The beaches here are famous for their fine, golden sand and calm waters, which are ideal for families with young children or anyone who enjoys a gentle morning swim. The coastline is dotted with resorts, meaning you are never far from a loungers-and-parasol setup where you can spend the entire day without moving more than a few steps.

For those interested in exploring beyond the resort, the town of Hammamet offers a traditional feel. You can enjoy a leisurely stroll through the old town, known as the medina, where the narrow streets are perfect for wandering on a warm afternoon. Yasmine Hammamet serves as a modern counterpart, offering plenty of space for evening walks along the waterfront.

What to Expect from Your Holiday

The climate is the primary draw for many British travellers, with long, hot summers and mild springs and autumns that make it a great destination for a break outside of the peak school holiday season. Getting there is straightforward, and once you arrive, you will find the service culture is exceptionally welcoming.

While many visitors choose to stay within the grounds of their chosen resort, there are plenty of ways to keep busy. If you enjoy watersports, the Mediterranean coast provides plenty of opportunities to get active. Alternatively, if your goal is purely to recharge, the combination of beachfront settings and high-end spas—such as the one found at the Royal Azur Thalassa Hotel—ensures you will return home feeling fully restored.

When it comes to dining, you can expect a mix of international buffet-style options within the larger resorts and authentic local flavours in the town areas. Whether you are looking for a romantic week for two or a memorable getaway for the whole family, the variety of properties, including TUI BLUE Manar, Phenicia Hotel, and Hotel Menara, ensures there is a perfect fit for every budget.
