Workation in Monastir: the essentials
Habib Bourguiba, Tunisia's first president, was born in Monastir and lies here in a gilded mausoleum, a short walk from the 8th-century Ribat fortress that later stood in for Jerusalem in Monty Python's Life of Brian. The city sits on the central coast in the Sahel region, 20 km south of Sousse, and has shifted from fishing port to large resort, with about 93,000 inhabitants, a marina and a university. Monastir Habib Bourguiba International Airport is about 8 km away, and the light rail to Sousse stops in town. The hotel zones along the shore towards Skanes are quiet outside summer.
