There is a small zoo and botanical park at Port el Kantaoui. Really it looked very poo rstandard - I mean ducks and guinea pigs and camels (actually dromedies as they have one hump)- on view without having to enter. We didn't visit it didn't look at all worthwhile even for the few dinar entrance fee. If you want to visit a zoo then go to Tunis - we passed a lovely one there.

The beach is just a continuation of that from Sousse and right the way along the coast - lovely fine white sand - a bit scruffy towards the back and some seaweed but they are cleaned more in the high season. Sunbeds and parasols for hire as usual. Beach can be accessed either side of the marina.

Apart from the marina another feature of this tourist village are the so called dancing fountains - you walk past 2 lots after Hannibal Park to eventually reach the marina. At different times of the day they have different displays and at night they are colourfully lit up too - unfortunately we didn't get to see them in the evenings.

The tourist train from Sousse to Port el kantaoui use to go to the marina but now it stops ouside the Hannibal Park (children's amusement park) and you walk through this and past the usual carpet traders implorings to see their shop to reach the marina.

Hergla is a small village about 10km north of Port El Kantaoui - cost 8 DTs in a taxi. This is about the most real Tunisia we found in this tourist area. It has a picturesque working harbour and quaint back streets and alleyways. The people were friendly without the hassle that we found elsewhere in the region. The village is well known for the its weaving of baskets, mats etc from esparto grass. About 500 meters south of the village centre and close to the sea, are the remains of a roman villa of which a quarter have been excavated - a local 'enthusiast' gave us a guided tour even though the site should have closed at midday.

OK pass the fountain and through the mock fort archway - passing the Roman centurion who wants a tip if you take his picture - and there we are at the marina at last.
