Kitchen and Restaurants Port El Kantaoui

Most of the restaurants in the resort area are concentrated in the marina area - on the promenade along the quays and near the entrance to the port. All of them offer a fairly standard list of dishes: from fish and seafood, national cuisine plus several variants of French and Italian dishes. The pricelist is also more or less the same: 5-14 TND snacks, 7-9 TND per 100 gr of fish, cooked according to your desire on the grill, under the salt "coat" or "sote", 18-25 TND main dishes.

If you want to taste Tunisian green tea with pine nuts or Arabian coffee, go to a cafe (even the whole "Sidi El Kantaoui" coffee complex, which is located on a street perpendicular to the entrance to the marina, a bit into the hill) .There are several stepped open terraces, a covered hall with cozy pillows, a large selection of hookahs and a relaxed hearty atmosphere.

Shopping and shopping

Port El Kantaoui - a whole huge area for shopping. Bum souvenirs from Tunisia can be both in local shops at the exit from the hotels and along the main road, and in individual multi-storey shopping centers. Another option - to go to Sousse, where the impressive shopping center Soula just bursts with all sorts of tourist goods (located at the entrance to the medina).

Entertainment, excursions and attractions in Port El Kantaoui

Directly in Port El Kantaoui there are no historical and architectural attractions - the resort area was built only in the 90s and did not have time to draw evidence of the presence of a person. For those, go to Sousse, where you will see a colorful medina, the Great Mosque and the Tower of the Caliph, the house-museum of the Tunisian family Dar Essid and many other monuments.

In the PEC itself it is worth sharing leisure time between walks in the well-groomed resort area with a visit to the marina and field excursions - for example, to the laser show "Medinat Elzahra" or to Monastir and El Jem, and distant - to admire the city of Tunis, Carthage and Sidi Bou Said, or travel 1200 km across the country during a two-day trip to the Sahara.

In the yacht port offer several sea excursions: a three-hour walk on the "pirate" ship, a boat trip with a transparent bottom or dive tours around the neighborhood. A 15-minute taxi ride takes you to the Mabrouka Ranch, where an equestrian school operates and horse rentals can be rented.

Golf Club El Kantaoui invites golf fans. At your service there are 130 hectares of well-groomed territory and 36 holes - 2 sites on 18 holes with various relief. Training is offered, hire of equipment is available, there are bars and restaurants. Photos Port El Kantaoui (7)
