Is a small island in south Tunisia with white sandy beaches and white washed domed houses. The Djerban people are culturally distinct from mainland Tunisians and preserve many of their traditions and unique architecture. The medina in Houmt Souk is particularly pleasant and a cheap place to stay for relatively hassle-free shopping and eating. Resort hotels line the eastern coast in the Zone Touristique. The best time to visit Djerba and enjoy the sun and the sea is the summer‚ from June to September. In May the temperature is warm enough‚ especially in the second half of the month‚ but the sea is still cool. In October the sea is still warm‚ and there are still many warm and sunny days‚ but the first depressions‚ which bring the first rains more to the north‚ can bring some cloudiness and a bit of wind.
