Ksar Ghilane, the southernmost of Tunisia's oases, is a gateway to the Tunisian desert and a popular destination for quad or camel rides. This oasis is fed by a hot spring, which comes from a failed oil drilling in 1953. Instead of finding oil, the drillers discovered a captive water table about 700 meters deep. The water gushes out at a temperature of about 32 ° C and has sulfurous properties. You can swim there and it is famous for its thermal properties. Don't forget your swimsuits if you want to swim there
