Medenine in a Nutshell
Located in southeastern Tunisia, the Governorate of Medenine occupies a strategic position in the middle of the Mediterranean basin. It is bordered by the Governorate of Gabes and the Mediterranean Sea to the north, and by Tataouine to the south, Libya and the Mediterranean Sea to the east and Kebili to the west. Its privileged location gives it a quite exceptional status. The island of “Djerba la Douce”, which is one of delegations of Médenine, made of the region an internationally renowned tourist spot.
