The Bizerte Cap Blanc Resort also tries to inject a traditional Tunisian feeling into the buildings and layout with the objective being that the development compliments the environment in which it sits rather than dominating it.

The project is due to start during 2011 and then be completed over the following 5-7 years it is envisaged that during its construction the project will bring 5000 jobs to the area.
