Find all the beaches in Tunisia beautiful. The hotels keep the beaches in front of them spotless. There are normally flags denoting wether it's safe to swim or not. Be careful of jellyfish washed up on beaches after rough weather along with tons of seaweed, saying that you can walk for miles along the beaches and they are patrolled by police or security so felt really safe
