İzmir, Çeşme & Alaçatı

İzmir, Turkey’s third-largest city, sits on the western Aegean coast and still carries traces of its Greek past as Smyrna. Just beyond it, the Çeşme and Alaçatı peninsula offers Bodrum’s quieter counterpart - beach clubs, stone streets, good food, and an easy pace by the sea.
