Hassen Beach – Ras Djebal: A Hidden Treasure on the Tunisian Coast
Hello steemians,
Among the hidden gems of the Tunisian coast is Hassen Beach in Ras Djebal. Unspoiled, not really handicapped by tourism de masse, this beach offers a unique natural environment for rest, meditation, and communion with nature. In this magical place, I discovered the wild area, the calm sea, and the fertility of this precipitated haven.
Note: There is no admission for anyone who wishes to take a break at Hassen Beach.
An Exceptional Natural Setting
Located in the Ras Djebal area, Hassen Beach, also called Samaria Beach, features an extensive band of fine golden sand bordered by transparent water that turns from turquoise to navy blue. When I got there, it was nothing special, no big buildings, no noisy people, only the most beautiful nature.

The scenery is wild and peaceful, the cliffs loom over the beach and the soft talcum-powder sand contrasts sharply with the scenery. The repetitive sound of waves crashing mixes with the seabirds’ screams, the low Mediterranean vegetation provides a shy green touch. It is a feast for the senses and sounds harmonious and organic.
Refreshing and Invigorating
What makes Hassen Beach special is the vibe of the place. It feels a world away from the busy resort beaches; here you’re compelled to take it slow, to make space for yourself to rest and to wander at your will which is why I spent hours walking up and down the shore, watching the sea change color and mood as the sun moved through the sky. There was calm and the time seemed to be slower.

It's fun to swim here. The water is beautifully clear to swim in, very refreshing. Under the water of a snorkeling trip, things change, and one can experience a vivid underwater world, where fish swim beautifully along through crystal clear waters. To float on the water, to feel that one is at once at the mercy of the sea and held ever so fast in her tender arms, is a never-to-be-forgotten feeling.

Relaxing moments by the shore, where the sea invites you for a refreshing swim.

A Breathtaking Panoramic View
You can also have stunning views of the coast,” he said. The horizon is infinite, where the blue of the ocean and sky are indistinguishable.

This magical moment was in full panoramic in a video I filmed and that showed to the left and to the right the cliffs that were far away, the slight descent of the beach in the opposite direction from the one we have been walking toward the water and the limitless horizon where the shades of blue were inseparable. To those who can't make it to Hassen Beach, it stands as a singular testament to its pristine beauty and a vision of what's right.
Authentic Encounters
Their friendliness and feeling of inclusion of the natural treasure were heartwarming to see. They helped me see how important it is to maintain this extremely fragile ecosystem. These encounters added a new level to my trip and opened up the human nature in this little-known part of Tunisia.

Travel Advice
The full-day trip to Hassen Beach is ideal. You must take whatever you think you need to be comfortable (food, water, etc.) as there are ZERO facilities around. You can visit the beach during its calmest hours and enjoy the most beautiful light if you come early in the morning or late in the afternoon. It's key to protect the area and be cautious in the realm of the natural equilibrium and to not have any impacts. Depending on your destination, you might want a swimsuit, sunscreen, or even a snorkeling mask to maximize your time on the beach, and you’ll need comfortable shoes to get there.
