Discover Monastir — A historic pearl on the Sahel coast
Monastir, the historic pearl of the Tunisian Sahel, combines a remarkable maritime heritage with modern beach resort facilities. Its 8th-century ribat — one of Islam’s oldest fortifications — stands guard over the sea, while the white marble mausoleum of Habib Bourguiba dominates the skyline of this city that shaped modern Tunisia. Monastir’s own international airport provides direct flights from across Europe, making it one of Tunisia’s most accessible beach destinations. The Landlord offers sea view apartments, pool villas and charming holiday properties in Monastir with full concierge service.
Monastir — your base in Tunisia
Monastir occupies a strategic position on the Sahel coast, on a natural peninsula that gives the town extraordinary light and sea views on three sides. Its ribat, one of the oldest Islamic fortifications in North Africa, has watched over the Mediterranean since the 8th century. The Bourguiba Mausoleum, the medina and the marina together form one of Tunisia’s most photogenic waterfronts.
The town offers a perfect balance of culture and beach. The pleasure port, the animated corniche, fresh fish restaurants and supervised beaches sit alongside an authentic medina and residential neighbourhoods. Monastir-Habib Bourguiba International Airport provides direct flights from Paris, London, Lyon, Marseille and many other European cities throughout the year.
