Tartus is a sleepy port town in Syria that has been spared the destruction of the country's civil war. The town is home to a large Russian naval base and is home to a mix of Syrians, Russians and other expats. The town is a great place to relax, enjoy the Mediterranean atmosphere and get away from the hustle and bustle of Damascus. There are a few small beaches in town, as well as a few restaurants and cafes.
