Perched beneath the iconic blue-and-white houses of Sidi Bou Said, this intimate cove is a visual feast, a painter's palette of cerulean, whitewash, and terracotta. The journey down to the sand is part of the charm, a winding path that reveals breathtaking vistas of the Gulf of Tunis with each turn. Once you arrive, the small stretch of sand feels like a private discovery, a quiet haven away from the bustling cafes and artisan shops above.
“Its unparalleled position directly beneath the famous blue-and-white village offers a unique blend of scenic beauty and cultural immersion.”

You'll find yourself gazing up at the whitewashed walls and vibrant blue shutters of the village, a striking contrast against the deep blue sky, making every moment feel like a living postcard.
Beyond its undeniable beauty, Sidi Bou Said Beach offers a unique cultural immersion. After a swim, ascend back to the village for a mint tea at Café des Délices, or wander through the narrow cobblestone streets, soaking in the bohemian atmosphere that has long captivated artists and writers. This beach isn't just a place to sunbathe; it's an integral part of experiencing the timeless allure of Sidi Bou Said.
