Kuşadası
Kuşadası, the first place where tourism began in Türkiye, is the pearl of the Aegean with its blue-flag beaches, marina, and rich history and culture. It takes its name from Pigeon Island in the district.
Bordered by Selçuk and Pamucak to the north and Dilek Peninsula National Park to the south, Kuşadası stands out for its proximity to popular spots such as Ephesus, the House of the Virgin Mary, Didim and Pamukkale. With its Aegean cuisine, peaceful cafés and warm-hearted people, it welcomes visitors in every season.
