Often seen as simply a summer, beach destination with mostly some sandy beaches, Tunisia has a bucketful of surprising different landscapes and things to do for those that venture off the sandy shores.

Tunisians often have to clarify that the Tunisian landscapes hold sceneries far beyond the beaches and the few known tourist attractions.

Solely captured by Tunisian photographers, these photos showcase the vast and diverse scenery of Tunisian landscapes, from beaches, lakes, the desert expanse of the Sahara and urban scenes, all the way to the mountains and forests that dot the country!
