Tunisia occupies North Africa between Algeria and Libya, facing the Mediterranean. Near the capital lie the ruins of Carthage and the blue-and-white town of Sidi Bou Said, while the Roman amphitheatre of El Jem stands further south. Beach resorts cluster in Hammamet, Sousse and on Djerba. Beyond the coastal strip the Sahara begins, with the Chott el Djerid salt lake.
