About Djerba
Djerba is a flat island in the Gulf of Gabès in southern Tunisia, with whitewashed villages, sandy beaches, potters and an old synagogue.
Djerba lies off the south-east coast of Tunisia, linked to the mainland by a Roman causeway and by a short ferry crossing. The island is flat and sunny, with palm and olive groves, whitewashed houses with domed roofs and fortress-like mosques. Houmt Souk, the main town, has a lively souk and a harbour with a sea fort, the Borj el Kebir, and the village of Guellala is known for its pottery.
