Tunisia — Djerba
Djerba is an island of subtlety: mild climate, endless beaches with delicate sand, shallow, warm sea almost completely lacking waves, low-land landscape created by the greenery of palm trees, the beige of the sandy earth and whiteness of low-rise buildings in which domes and round cubical shapes dominate. All this creates an atmosphere of a strange stillness, magical quiet and unnatural peace. It is no wonder that the largest Tunisian island, located just a few kilometres from the south-eastern coast of the country, aspires to the name of the mythical Island of Lotus Eaters.
