Things to Do in Djerba

A trip to the beach is a “shore” thing on every Djerba holiday. Many Djerba hotels are located close to the coastline, so after a good night's rest, you can simply walk out the door and onto the white sand. Before you’re crispier than a bag of Doritos, get indoors at the Guellala Museum, which features a huge collection of traditional Djerbian artwork and several exhibits detailing what life is like for a typical island resident. Another museum worth visiting is the Djerba Traditional Heritage Museum in Houmt Souk. Get “fired up” about pottery, but don’t become too much of a basket case at the weaving exhibit. The small city of Midoun is home to yet another art institution, Lalla Hadria, which focuses on Arabic art and handicrafts.

If you book hotels in Djerba during the month of October, schedule your trip during Djerba Fest. The three-day event features a host of local and international musicians representing both traditional and modern styles.
