(2050) Grombalia - Trans-African Highway 1

Rest area on the A1, both towards Tunis (see photos) and heading south. The parking spaces are lit at night, and the rest area is staffed 24/7. Restrooms are open 24 hours and free of charge. There's a shop and a bakery at the rest area. Recommended if you arrive by ferry at night and are looking for a convenient place to sleep. There are a few 4x4 vehicles, and sometimes motorcycles, that set up their tents in the grass next to the parking lot.
