Pro
enjoyed there being a cafe on top of the kasbah - sat and sipped on lovely orange juice with interesting views over the sea and medina
Con
Not much to do, surrounded by tourists and those that make their living off of them
In a nutshell
Mass tourism resorts and away from the genuine arab culture.
bonio Says: Enjoyed a walk around the medina area on the seafront. Didn't venture inside the medina itself (had a couple of beers and didn't need the hassle!) It's a pleasant and interesting place to explore and well worth a visit.
bonio Says: A ten minute or so taxi ride from Hammamet, Friday morning is market day in Nabeul. Here is a chance to buy all those things you cannot do without! Expect plenty of pretty good natured banter from the stall holders, every one of them wants you to look at his goods!Enjoyed...
bonio Says: A brand new part of town, many shops, restaurants and hotels here as well as the marina. I guess it could be anywhere in the world, it didn't feel like the rest of Hammamet that we saw.Still it's worth a visit for an hour or two if you like this sort of thing, pleasant...
Quartzy Says: The medina in Hammamet is very beautiful, though somewhat small. Of course, the shop owners are a little pushy and really want you to come into their shops; you have to be persistent, say thank you and pass your way. If you're a woman, you will hear comments such as "nice...
angiebabe Says: The narrow streets of the old medina next to the old fort next to the sea of old Hammamet (as none of these tips are referring to 'new' package tour commercial Hammamet about 5 km away!!) are great to roam - with loads of photogenic doors and entrance ways to little houses...
Visit the fortress beside the sea
angiebabe Says: This is an interesting defense to make a visit to - check out the layout of the fort and also go up the stairways to the varying levels - there are excellent views of course from the walls - over the sea and over the narrow lanes of the medina with its shops and little...

deborahg21 Says: This restaurant is in the ecntre of Hammamet it has a lovely roof top open air restaurant as well as a closed in restaurant down stairs. Good menu the pizza is beautiful but you can get many more decent meals. We often go in there just for a beer, when we do they bring out...
Berber fish restaurant and Brauhouse: Tourist trap
sr71blackbird Says: This restaurant in Hammamet near the medina is a real tourist trap. When we came they showed us to the best table at the top floor and tried to pursuade us to order the most expensive on the menu. We refused and ordered grilled lambchops that were so tough that they couldn´t...
Black on White: Yummy fish soup
clouds111 Says: Located opposite the Bel Azur hotel this quaint, romantic little restuarant offers traditional Tunisian and French dishes. If you can bag a table next to the window you'll get wafts of jasmine and get to watch the world go by. Lots of antique and vintage objects in the...
Yasmine: Interesting Nightlife
hislirem Says: Yasmine area has more places for nightlife.Our routine was: a drink in Sinbad Hotel's Bar (not cheap though). And then either el Pascha. Calypso is also a well-known club.Both are the most lively night clubs. You may encounter a worldwide known DJ or a traditional Tunisian...
bonio Says: A brewpub in the Yasmine area of Hammamet. Tried a couple of different beers here, the helles was pretty average with an unusual taste but marzen much better, enjoyed that one (or two).Just firing up the pizza oven as we left, no time to try one unfortunately.Anyway if...
Brauhaus Le Berbère #1: Brewery!
bonio Says: A brewpub in the city centre and of course we were bound to visit!It's right next to the medina and very easy to find, a huge beer glass on the roof.Beer was a little unusual, german names - helles and dunkel - not really like anything I've found in Germany, not unpleasant...
From Hammamet to Sidi Bou Said
hislirem Says: You may take a taxi (around 140-160 Dinars -85 Euros for two ways) from Hammamet to Sidi Bou Said.Or you may use the bus. We did so.. There is a bus to Tunis from Hammamet every hour. (or you may go to Naboul by Taxi - around 10 Dinars / 5,5 Euros. And there is a bus from...
Xfire Says: If you are on a low budget, try to take the busses as much as possible. You can save a lot. Bus stands are sometimes not visible as one, just watch a crowd of people in the street, probably there is one.Some fares:Hammamet-Yasmin to Hammamet Medina: 0,4 Dinar (24 Eurocent)....
clouds111 Says: Around the end of September we vistited Tunisia which also happened be to Ramadan. This doesn't cause too many difficulties, but an understanding of their customs help. The only difficulty some may come across will be the restaurants that do not open before sundown. Not...
keira2010 Says: Ladies please beware in Tunisia. Enjoy your holiday be aware of the dangers of Bezness. This is where local men want you to fall in love with them but they have a plan. They are after your money and/or a visa to the UK where it is extremely hard for them to get to without...
smirice38 Says: this beach bar has got worse and worse over the last few years it has gotten really run down with no effort to clean up the area or make repairs to the bar itself the kitchen is located at the back of the hut right next to the disgraceful toilets which i have never seen...
violettaylor Says: Went to Tunis on local bus and decided to go to Carthage using the metro. Wallet was stolen from zipped and bottoned pocket in seconds at the metro station. Police did not speak any English and were not really that interested anyway. No interpretor. Would never discourage...
ivanab Says: In the desert, some people still live in their homes underground or in the homes they made themselves in rocks. It is colder and easier to live there because of the heats, but it is very very simple life. It is interesting to see the way these people live, so you can go and...
ivanab Says: This is salt desert with termal-salted water. Amazing are the colours, especially the colour of the red colour of the water. If you're visiting this as apart of a jeep-safari to desert, you'll be stopping here only for a couple of minutes, just to go to the toilet in a...

I went to Hammamet in January so during the off season so I had time to travel anywhere I wanted and there were almost no tourists there!

We split our visit to Tunisia in half, a week in Hammamet and a week in Port El Elkantoui. Our base for our time in Hammamet was the 4 Star Azizia hotel, which is located right on the beach.
