With the-nearest town Monastir, a seven kilometre metro ride away and Sousse, Tunisia's 3rd Largest city, about 12 kilometers away, Skanes offers a wonderful environment for those wishing to relax on fine sandy beaches with the bustle of Tunisian living within easy reach.

For those who wish to experience the local flavors of Tunisia, the village of Sahleen is a

short, 2km, walk over the salt lakes. Or there are buses, taxis or a Noddy Train available for trips into Sousse or Monastir. Catching the metro, it will cost you around 1$ for a return journey from Skanes to the city of Sousse where there is a wide choice of fashion boutiques, nightclubs, restaurants and a traditional Medina where you can haggle to your hearts content. There is a full range of excursions from Skanes

For some sporting activity, try the Palm Links golf course or the more mature Flamingo golf course in Monastir, both within easy reach.

Just a short transfer journey and you will be relaxing on the  beach with the city life not too far away.
