The Tunisia satellite map shows new pictures of Tunisia as seen from the sky. This satellite map of Tunisia will allow you to visit the country Tunisia in Northern Africa as seen from the sky. The Tunisia satellite map is downloadable in PDF, printable and free.

As observed on Tunisia satellite map, the Tunisian Dorsal is a mountain range that runs in a southwest-northeast direction from Tunisia border with Algeria in the west to the Cape Bon peninsula in the east. This mountain is an extension of the Saharan Atlas Mountains as you can see in Tunisia satellite map. Further north from the Tunisian Dorsal, the mountains of the Northern Tell (that include the Kroumirie Mountains in the northwest and the Mogods running along the northern coastline) can be found. In between the Tunisian Dorsal and Northern Tell Mountains lies the Medjerda River valley (shown on the map above). This valley features a series of ancient lake basins and is the country most fertile grain-producing land. The Medjerda River is the only perennial river in Tunisia and its drains into the Gulf of Tunis.

Southern Tunisia is part of the Sahara Desert as its shown in Tunisia satellite map. The interior of the desert is almost totally barren and uninhabited except for oases that occur along a line of springs. The Grand Erg Oriental, at the edge of the Saharan dunes, is interrupted by the flat-topped Monts des Ksour. The western part of central Tunisia along the border with Algeria is moderately elevated and known as the High Steppes. There are many hills in the desert region of the south. Tunisia famous Roman Caves, west of ElHaouaria on the Cape Bon peninsula, are actually ancient, eroded sandstone mines that date to the sixth century B.C. The oasis of Mides is known for the canyons that border it on two sides. The canyons that form the Selja Gorge have walls as high as 200 meters (656 feet).

Tunisia can be divided into northern, southern, and central regions, determined in part by topography and quality of the soil and in part by the incidence of rainfall, which decreases progressively from north to south as its mentioned in Tunisia satellite map. The Mediterranean Sea influences the climate in the north, and the Sahara Desert influences the weather in the south. The Mediterranean Sea forms Tunisia northern and eastern borders. In the north, the shoreline is indented by the Gulf of Tunis. Immediately to the south of Cape Bon is the Gulf of Hammamet. Farther to the south is the largest of Tunisia gulfs, the Gulf of Gabès.
