Chikly lies in Lake Tunis just off the northern edge of the city of Tunis. Access is by boat from shore points near the lagoon and arrangements are best made through local tour operators or coastal guides.

- Bring sun protection-the Tunisian sun is fierce in summer on low islands.
- Check local conservation signs and don't disturb nesting birds or flora.
