The north African country of Tunisia is home to affordable luxuries, golden beaches, and beautiful sunny weather. Tunisia is known for the ancient ruins of Carthage, the Muslim and Jewish quarters of Jerba, and coastal resorts outside of Monastir. Most of the coastal areas have been transformed to a tourist bliss, but to experience the country in its true form, its best to travel to an untouched town. Madia is perfect! The laid-back, fishing town is a 2.5-hour drive from the country’s capital Tunis. Apart from the beaches, the town has a lot more to offer- the great mosque built in AD 921, a 1595 fortress Bordj el Kebir, the old town or Media which is the gateway to a rustic town exhibiting the country’s culture. Underwater exploration is another great activity that only Mahdia can offer. The spot is perfect for discovering Roman wreckage, in fact, sponge-divers off Cap Afrique discovered the wreck of a Roman sailing ship sunk in 86 BC! A mix of Roman culture, African heritage and Mediterranean touch, Mahdia is going to wow you beyond expectations! Scroll down to find the perfect Airbnb vacation rentals in Mahdia for your African adventure.

It is romantic in its own way and yet, the sun rays bouncing off the old walls of Medina in the city center make it all the more inviting to explore and discover!
