As the capital city of Tunisia, La Marsa remains were largely unexplored by mass tourism. Get ready to be captivated with stunning Mediterranean Sea views, tree tunnels, vibrant city center, palaces, and historic sites, a short distance from downtown Tunis. It is the perfect place to observe the locals in daily life and enjoy a balanced trip with historical and cultural attractions during the day with the exciting nightlife.

You can start a stroll in La Marsa along the Corniche coast and enjoy sweeping views of the Mediterranean Sea, feeling the refreshing breeze on your skin. You will see street artists, painters, writers, and Jasmine vendors.

Not far from the Corniche, on Essaada Road, you can find a picturesque tree tunnel that is sure to leave you in awe. The street is right next to Essaada Park, half of which is part of the city and the other half of the park, separated by a tall green gate that you can barely see between the branches and trees. The leaves of the mighty trees.
