The history of Kusadasi runs rich and deep - it has seen settlers from numerous civilizations since its founding in 3000 BC, from the Aeolians in the 11th century BC to the Ionians in the 9th. Initially overshadowed by Ephesus, it rose to prominence when the famed city's harbour was silted up, transforming it into a key port on the Aegean coast. It stood as the beacon of Hellenistic culture following its conquest by Alexander the Great, and in the Roman era, it bloomed as a centre of early Christianity. It even served as home to Saint John the Evangelist and the Virgin Mary.

In more modern history, Kusadasi survived occupation during the Turkish War of Independence and, in 1923, following a population exchange with Greece, officially became part of the Republic of Turkey. Today, it basks in the sun of its success as a tourism hotspot, drawing travellers from across the globe to its sun-kissed shores.

When to visit Kusadasi

The shores of Kusadasi glisten invitingly under the sun, particularly between June and September, making it an ideal choice for sun-seekers. July, the driest month, boasts a full month of unblemished sunshine, perfect for beach lounging and water sports. Sea temperatures are remarkably warm throughout summer and early autumn, often north of 23 degrees Celsius - a delightful invitation for a refreshing swim.

However, don't frown if you're unable to visit during this period.
