For such a small island, Djerba is bursting with cultural richness. Swimming in the sea off Tunisia’s southeastern coast, it contains all the Mediterranean’s usual trimmings but mixes in intoxicating North African roots. Its wonderfully interwoven tapestry is most evident in its people, with the Muslim, Berber and Jewish communities peacefully coexisting on the island as they have done for centuries. The island is home to Africa’s oldest synagogue, whose floors are lined with mats handwoven by local Muslim craftsmen. Djerba is the sort of place that can entrance you for many days, but if pressed, you could squeeze its highlights into just 24 hours. Dedicate your morning to markets and Mediterranean breezes, your afternoon to understanding its unique Jewish community and admiring the street art tucked away in the enclave’s twisted alleys, and the evening to the sweet sounds of arabesque and a fragrant meal of Djerban rice. In Homer’s Odyssey, this island was known as the Land of the Lotus Eaters, and it’s still easy to understand how it can lull you into blissfully forgetting to return home.
