Alaçatı and the wind on the Çeşme peninsula
Alaçatı, just before Çeşme, is known for its old stone houses, narrow streets, boutique hotels and restaurants, and for the Alaçatı Herb Festival held every spring. The peninsula has a windy, relatively dry climate: steady summer winds make Alaçatı Bay one of Turkey's best-known windsurfing spots, and beaches such as Pırlanta are popular with kitesurfers.
When to visit Çeşme
The main beach season runs from June to September. The sea around the peninsula is generally cooler than on Turkey's southern coast, which many visitors find refreshing on hot days. July and August are the busiest months, when hotels and beach clubs fill up quickly, so book accommodation early. Spring and early autumn are quieter and pleasant for exploring Alaçatı, the castle and the surrounding villages.
