An original park that includes the Lalla Hadria Museum, Djerba Héritage and the Crocodile Park: what a pleasant and enriching moment. The impressive Museum of Art and History of the Arab World covers a period of 13 centuries. This collection of more than 1,000 pieces demonstrates the influence of Islamic art from the Mediterranean Basin to the borders of Asia. Thought with a funnel logic, the collections go from the vast Muslim world to the arts of the Maghreb and the tribes of Tunisia. One will admire among others the Koranic scroll of Kairouan, the fragments of the Kaaba hanging, a superb collection of Tunisian costumes as well as masterpieces of calligraphy.

Djerba Héritage is a successful reconstruction of the typical habitats of Djerba. In this open-air space, it's time for history! In this traditional menzel, we are invited to discover the customs, crafts and habitat of the island through a living demonstration of practices such as pottery or weaving.

We are then guided to the park where 400 Nile crocodiles were brought back from Madagascar in 1998. Today 800 reptiles flourish there. The climate of Djerba allows the Nile crocodiles to live outside most of the year. You will learn many things. The 24 year old crocodiles present here measure on average 4.5 meters and weigh 500 kg. Despite these measurements, the animals only eat 4 kg of meat per week... but they will lose more than 3,000 teeth throughout their lives!

A super moment in a reconstruction of a medina shops and restaurants, a museum very well designed, a village of yesteryear and especially the park crocodile which is very impressive
Large complex where a day of sightseeing is necessary. Many crocodiles, it is very impressive. However, there were many people in the afternoon, you are necessary to visit in the morning. But it is not to be missed!
