Monastir is one of the principal towns in Tunisia and is 160 Km from the capital, Tunis.

The “monastery” after which the town was named, was built by an Islamic religious order in 797 to defend the town from roaming nomadic tribes and Byzantine warships. The fortress houses a lovely museum of Islamic art and artefacts.

Monastir is 187NM from Malta and 180NM from Ragusa, Sicily (Italy).
