Workation in Mahdia: the essentials
Mahdia was the first capital of the Fatimid caliphate, founded in the early 10th century on a narrow peninsula on Tunisia's east coast. These days about 76,000 people live in this provincial capital, working in fish processing and weaving, and the tip of the cape holds a compact medina, a fortress and a cemetery right above the sea. White sand runs north of town, past a zone of mid-range hotels. Compared with Sousse or Hammamet the atmosphere is calm, and Tunisian families fill the beach in summer. Monastir Habib Bourguiba Airport is about 40 km away, and a light rail line runs along the coast to Sousse.

Mahdia is a small coastal town in Tunisia with no coworking. Cafés and hotels offer Wi-Fi, internet is mediocre and mobile data is usually the better backup. Fixed desks are available in Sousse or Tunis, and in winter the town is very quiet.
