The Port of Sfax was founded in 849 AD on the site of two ancient Roman settlements, Taparura and Thaenae (now Thyna), and it was an early center of trade for nomads.
The Port of Sfax lies on the northern shores of the Gulf of Gabes off the Mediterranean Sea in east-central Tunisia about 270 kilometers southeast of Tunis, the nation's capital. The Port of Sfax is the capital of the Sfax Governorate and an important transportation hub, major port town, fishing port, and the base for ferries traveling to the nearby Kerkenah Islands.
The second largest city in Tunisia, the Port of Sfax is also a growing commercial and industrial center. The port is Tunisia's major phosphate exporting port, but it also exports sponges, olive oil, and esparto grass from the surrounding agricultural region. Its hinterland also contains several oil fields. In 2004, over 265 thousand people lived in the Port of Sfax.
