Travel Guide Cesme Peninsula

Spared from mass tourism, the Çeşme peninsula offers typical villages, clear waters, ancient site and relaxed atmosphere. Less expensive than Bodrum and more authentic, it is the place of choice for vacationers coming from Izmir or Istanbul. The donkey island, formerly known as Goni, was renamed after its inhabitants... Nobody lives there except donkeys, goats and rabbits. Perfect to spend the day on beautiful beaches, one hour by boat from Çesme. To sleep, you must return to Çesme or go to the adjacent island (Kara Ada). Diving enthusiasts will be delighted at Yarık Kaya, the depth reaches up to 60 m.
