Djerba - Essential Information
Airport
Djerba-Zarzis International Airport is located near Mellita, just 8 kilometres from Houmt Souk. Taxis are the most efficient and fastest way to get in town (about 9 TND in 15 minutes).
Ferry
For those who arrive by car, the ferry between Jorf and Ajim (southwest of the island) runs every hour from 4 a.m. to midnight and every two hours from midnight to 4 a.m. (free for pedestrians).
Public Transport
The best way to get anywhere in Djerba is by taxi. They are cheap and readily available in all main beach resorts, everywhere and at all times of the day or night. A 15 km ride costs on average about 5 TND.
Once you find a taxi driver you like, ask for his phone number and he will be happy to come pick you up and give you a ride. If you’re a group, another good option is to use shared taxis, which go to a fixed destination. They leave only when they’re full. If you need a booking back to the airport, it’s also good to ask your hotel.
Public Transport
If you have time, an original way to explore Djerba is by bicycle or small motorbike. Ask your hotel for more details about rentals.
