Oasis Hot Spring, in Tozeur, southern Tunisia, offers bicarbonate thermal water at 38°C in the heart of an oasis. Open-air bathing amid the palm groves.
Insider tip — Oasis Hot Spring lies in the Tozeur region, where the Chott el-Jerid salt flat stretches to the horizon and the Saharan light bleaches the landscape to white. The artesian springs here are part of the same geological system that feeds the famous palmeries of Tozeur and Nefta, rising through fissures in Cretaceous limestone. The water carries a mild bicarbonate mineralization that has been used for skin and digestive cures for centuries by local Berber and Arab populations. Visiting at dawn, when the salt flat turns pink and the spring steam rises in cold desert air, is an unforgettable experience.
