Djerba, Tunisia
Djerba is the largest island in North Africa, connected to the mainland by a Roman-era causeway. The island has been home to one of the oldest Jewish communities in the world — the El Ghriba Synagogue, possibly founded in the 6th century BCE, is a place of annual pilgrimage. Houmt Souk, the main town, has a charming medina with fondouks (caravanserais), the Turkish Fort Borj el-Kebir, and a fishing harbor. The island's interior is dotted with whitewashed mosques, olive groves, and the unique menzel (fortified farmsteads) of the Berber population. Midoun, the second town, hosts a weekly market with local pottery and weaving. The beaches along the northeast coast stretch for kilometers.
