Group Activities Midoun
Group Activities in Midoun, Djerba
Midoun is a town on the east side of Djerba Island in southeast Tunisia. Groups can combine culture, water sports and golf, and a taxi or minibus links the stops easily on a flat island.
Culture
- Djerba Explore, Ras Taguermess: The Lalla Hadria museum and heritage village share one ticket, listed at roughly 32 to 37 TND for adults and 24 TND for children aged 4 to 12. The museum zone runs 09:00 to 17:00 and the village 08:00 to 22:00.
- Mosquée Fadhloun, Khazroun: A 14th-century fortified rural mosque on the Houmt Souk to Midoun road. It opens mornings only and is closed all day on Friday.
- Erriadh: The Djerbahood murals suit a group walk. The village also holds El Ghriba, an active synagogue and pilgrimage site. Visit quietly, expect a security check, carry a passport or ID and dress modestly. Ask locally about opening times.
Active
- Kitesurfing: Schools such as KiteWorldWide Kitecenter Djerba, Kite Aventure and Les Dauphins teach in the flat, shallow lagoon on the north-east shore.
- Golf: Djerba Golf Club in the Midoun tourist zone has 27 holes in three nines (Les Acacias, La Mer and Les Palmiers).
- Ras Rmel boat trip: Boats leave from the Houmt Souk fishing port for Flamingo Island, with lunch aboard. Flamingos are seasonal, so go in the cooler months and do not expect a guaranteed sighting.
Tips and Essentials
- Book activities in advance to ensure availability.
- Summer midday heat is strong, so start early and carry water.
- Some beaches use a flag system. Supervise children and ask locally if there are no flags, lifeguards or signs.
