What travellers say about Harqalah
Xiaoli_HKYAugust 12, 2019
4.0
The ancient city is not big, but very beautiful. There is no commercial atmosphere yet. The ancient city is close to the sea. There is a small castle in the middle. You can spend 8 dinars to go up and have a look. After going up, you can overlook the whole ancient city. In the evening, you can see the national flag flying on the castle on the distant mountain, and the beauty of the Mediterranean Sea. You can also overlook the African fishermen who are packing up their stalls. The ancient Tunisia is fully displayed to the world.

Next to the old castle of Sousse on the Mediterranean coast, the charming Fisherman's Wharf - Lover's Harbor is a beautiful business card of Sousse. The depths of Sousse Harbor hide charming customs, various bars and restaurants are scattered among them, and various yachts, fishing boats and luxury cruise ships are docked in the harbor. A curved pier goes deep into the Mediterranean.
