Explore Houmt Souk and Its Historic Medina
Just 23 km from Le Palm Azur Djerba
Houmt Souk is the capital of Djerba and is located 23 km from the hotel. The medina of Houmt Souk is characterised by whitewashed lanes, blue doors and former fondouks now home to craft shops, jewellers and ceramicists.
The Houmt Souk market brings together fish, spices and textiles and is particularly lively in the mornings. On the seafront, Ghazi Mustapha Fort stands at the entrance to the fishing port. Houmt Souk is best explored on foot, preferably towards the end of the day when the heat begins to ease.
