Çeşme at a glance

Çeşme is a popular holiday district at the tip of the peninsula, at İzmir's far western end. The Ottoman-era Çeşme Castle, the caravanserai and the streets around the harbour form the town's historic core. It is known for its clear, cool sea, beaches such as Altınkum and Pırlanta, a large marina and a lively summer season. Ferries also run from Çeşme Port to the Greek island of Chios.

If you are crossing to Chios, please note the ferry port and departure time in your booking; if you are joining a boat at the marina, add the marina name and the yacht or berth details. Hotels and holiday homes are spread across the peninsula, so the exact name and address of your accommodation matter too.

Arriving in Çeşme: what to know

From the airport the route skirts İzmir on the ring road and then follows the motorway west along the peninsula, passing the Urla and Alaçatı exits before reaching Ilıca and Çeşme itself. For most of the year it is an easy, open drive with sea views towards the end.

Summer weekends are the exception. In June, July and August many İzmir families head to their holiday homes on Friday evening or Saturday morning and drive back on Sunday afternoon and evening, so the motorway fills up in one direction and then the other. Longer public holidays (bayram) bring similar queues. Much of the peninsula's accommodation is in gated holiday-home estates, known locally as sites, around Ilıca, Boyalık and Dalyan, where the driver may need to check in at the gate; the estate name and block number save time. If you fly home on a summer Sunday evening, choose an earlier pickup than you would on a weekday.
