KORBOUS:
Practicalities
HOTELS AND ALTERNATIVES
There are relatively few places to sleep here, and the ones you can choose between are all medium priced. Their quality, however, don't always reflect the price level.
Anyone on a budget will have to resort to camping, principally out near the beach.

RESTAURANTS AND ALTERNATIVES
There are some few nice options for eating in Korbous.

NIGHTLIFE
The bar in Hotel Aïn Oktor (about 3 km west of Korbous) is popular, and with a fantastic view over the Gulf of Tunis.

CHANGE MONEY
There are no banks in Korbous. Do this in Tunis, Hammam Lif, Hammamet, Nabeul or El Haouaria, depending on where you're coming from.

TRANSPORT
There are irregular buses running through Korbous, connecting principally to Soliman (a town in the middle between Hammam Lif and Hammamet). There are also some shared taxis, doing the same stretch.

IMPORTANT
While Korbous is pretty, this place is first and foremost known for its healing springs, where hot water is used to heal or cure numerous diseases. Some of these springs can be used right on the spot, while the ones in Korbous have to be enjoyed through one of the hotels.
