Attractions and Activities: Punic Ports & Museum (Free entry) Today, only the shape of these legendary ports, the coveted basis of Carthage's power and prosperity, remains. A narrow channel linked the southern, oblong merchant port to the northern circular naval port. This arrangement meant that the military port was hidden from outside, but the Carthaginian navy could see out to sea. The military base had moorings for an incredible 220 vessels in dry docks and around the quay-lined edge. The 7-hectare commercial port was bordered by quays and warehouses. 30 min(s)
