Overview

In northern Tunisia, Tunis mainly features urban spots and easily accessible beaches, with a vibe quite different from the large lagoons further south. The area is known for a wind that is most often from the west to southwest depending on the spots, with generally moderate conditions navigated in a rather flat to slightly choppy body of water. La Marsa beach, near Carthage, is often cited as one of the most convenient spots, with sand, few obstacles, and a gradual depth, making it quite accessible. There are also schools and clubs, so the place is well-suited for progression, even if the best days are those when the wind is well established. The vibe is more “easy session” than wild trip, with a true local sliding culture and easy access from the capital.
