The local community has embraced the tourists along with the affluence and popularity they bring for the region. For this reason there are plenty of tourist facilities which are businesses run by the local people, creating a hospitable and friendly environment for tourists on their holidays in Skanes.

The people of Skanes have attempted to make the surrounding areas as alluring as possible to the tourists by building several high end hotel complexes, golf courses, nightclubs and all the facilities that modern tourists have come to expect on their Skanes holidays. Because of the influx of tourists, some of the cities have become a little less 'Tunisian' than they once were. The modern gilt work on Monastir may be a little false, but underneath this historic city retains its ancient air of having been Tunisia's holiest place, and an important town that was even once used as a base by Julius Caesar.

Skanes is particularly well known for its extravagant stretch of grand five star and four star hotels that have been built along the coasts These magnificent architectural delights are set in acres of lush gardens, most of them encompassing their own patch of well-maintained sandy beach. The Skanes hotels are well connected to Monastir and the nearby Mahdia holiday resort by a tourist road train and a plethora of cheap taxis. Skanes is also a souvenir hunter's paradise with vendors on most streets selling the 'wares' of the area, many see similar items but if tourists on their holidays in Skanes are willing to delve into the depths of some of these streets and stores there are some real authentic finds to be discovered.
