Kusadasi is a coastal resort on Turkey’s Aegean Sea. The city is surrounded by famous monuments from the Ancient World, among which are the ancient cities of Efeso, Mileto, Didim and Priena. Birds such as doves, herons and others have nested on this island for centuries. The island has many shops and craftwork stores selling carpets, leather, shoes and textiles and you have to be prepared to bargain with the vendors for whatever you want to buy. Nowadays it is considered to be one of the best beaches in Turkey, thanks to the Mediterranean climate, golden sand beaches, warm turquoise blue water and perfect conditions for those who prefer sports activities such as windsurfing, water skiing or beach volleyball.
