The most beautiful natural sites to discover Tripoli

Off El-Mina, several rocky islets are distinguished, including the Isle of Rabbits (or the island of palm trees) which became a natural reserve in 1992 to protect the fauna and flora. Ruins of a church dating from the mamelouke period would be on the island where the French introduced rabbits to satisfy their passion for hunting in the years 1930-1940.

Beware, the Isle of rabbits lies behind the first islets you see from shore. Some have no scruples about landing on the first pieces of pebbles in sight when you expressly asked to go to the island. Be vigilant. Once in approach to the island, the fishermen deposit you directly on the beach. We must agree with them for one hour's return. Many families and young people spend the day in the summer. While it is forbidden to eat, the premises come there picnic. For this reason, the cleanliness of the island is not impeccable. The guardian of the island will ask you for a small contribution (10 000 LL) to use a table, a wooden bench and a palm-leaf parasol.
