Ilıca Beach is a spacious and family-friendly destination with a broad shoreline and shallow waters, making it ideal for children. Visitors can enjoy various amenities such as eateries, chairs, and umbrellas. Known for its warm water, Ilıca Beach holds the prestigious Blue Flag status.
Beautiful beach!!! Why go to the Greek Islands when you have beaches like this in Türkey. I am quite impressed. I stayed in the town of Cęsme and now wish I had booked a hotel near this beach. I spent more time here than in the harbour of Cęsme.

Nice beach with a cordoned off area for swimmers with azure waters. The beach itself is pretty clean although they don’t have showers and only port-o-potty’s. Lots of parking nearby with lots of locals enjoying the beach.
Krishnan R — Google review
A very clean beach with crystal-clear water. Renting two chairs and an umbrella cost 800 Turkish lira. There was no shower available to rinse off afterward. I also didn’t see any changing rooms or restrooms nearby. However, if you want a drink or something to eat, there is a shop close by. The seawater was very salty, but the sand was excellent. We built a sandcastle together, went swimming, and sunbathed—it was one of the most delightful days of my holiday. The water starts shallow and gradually reaches about 160 cm deep after several meters.
Saliha F — Google review
As many other beaches we have experienced in Turkey, also this one is full of garbage. It's quite disgusting, and a pity. There seems to be no municipal cleaning service and people are uncivilised too. The beach itself could be gorgeous, long shore, shallow water.

This beach is undoubtedly one of the best beaches we have ever visited. Its pristine, golden-white sands and mesmerizing turquoise waters create a postcard-perfect scene. The beach is impeccably clean and offers a tranquil escape with complimentary sun loungers. Our kids were in absolute heaven. A must-visit!

The water is a bit cluttered with different debris like plastic waste and parts of algae, especially while entering the water, water’s edge But then if you go deeper, it’s cleaner The beach is quite spacious, there are few toilet facilities (quite smelly truth to be told) Sand is kinda clean
Anton R — Google review
This is a difficult one, the beach in so many ways is superb. It long, sandy, shallow, the water even in late September is warm enough for swimming comfortably BUT.... Maybe it's because it's the end of the season but the beach is covered in rubbish, I mean cigarette buts, bottle caps, plastic of all sorts, I mean just so much. Ok you might say well lots of beaches have bits of rubbish on them these days but thus is the main tourist beach that is so long and wide it could easily have a tractor go up and down at night with one of those rubbish filter / trailers behind it. Such a shame.

Amusement park ride
Oasis Waterpark is a medium-sized aquapark located in Cesme. The park features a variety of water rides and attractions, including serpentine slides and a wave pool, as well as an eatery and ice cream stands. It is ideal for families with children looking for a fun day out. The price of admission is approximately $20 USD per person, and outside food or drinks are not allowed inside the park.
Great fun day, with no wait for any rides
Carol D — Google review
Good for fun. Not huge but definitely not at all a small place. Enough fun for the family, convenient, neat and definitely smart. I could go for 5 stars but I rated better places by 5 so 4.6 would be my honest opinion. To be improved: parking, place under construction aspect from outside, better umbrellas and other very minor details. But what was good: food, personnel, cleanliness. Overall a great day, keep going in the right direction.

I wanted to express my concerns regarding our recent visit to your water park. Unfortunately, I must emphasise that the time and money we invested in our visit were not justified. My family and I, comprising my wife and three children, had a rather unpleasant experience. The facilities appeared neglected, with many areas dry and unkempt. The ground was filled with small stones that made walking barefoot uncomfortable, and there was a distinct lack of greenery to provide shade from the sun. Moreover, the lifeguards seemed indifferent, often distracted with personal matters such as smoking and using their phones, neglecting their responsibilities toward the guests. This lack of discipline was alarming. In fact, while we were trying to relax, a faulty parasol fell on my wife, resulting in her sustaining an injury to her foot. Regrettably, the staff's response was inadequate; no one checked on her well-being afterward. My wife's condition worsened, and we were forced to leave the premises in frustration. I feel compelled to bring these issues to your attention in hopes that you will take immediate action to address them. This park requires significant improvements, particularly in staff training and facility maintenance. We have visited numerous water parks around the world, and this was a disappointing experience. I sincerely hope to see positive changes at your establishment.

This is another aquapark for Cesme .. It is not big but not too small .. if you come with your children I am sure they can be happy .. price is nearly 20 usd.. they do not accept any food or drink together with you .. so you have to buy all inside of the park .. price is one pizza nearly 5 usd and coke is 1.35 usd.. There are some game activities with different time period .. so it can be interesting for you or your child.. Not too much crowded from this reason water of the pool is not to much dirty .. If you want to try different aqua toys you can come this Oasis Aqua park ..

Very good aquapark, not many slides but enough to make you feel happy, the prices till today is reasonable (unless it’s raised like every thing in Turkey), 450 TL for adults and 350 TL for children above 3 years old. Children will also have fun playing in 2 separate slide places, although I suggest turning off the showers and fountains of the slides because the splash will make them uncomfortable. The food is good but too expensive (as expected) and the prohibit food entry at the gate through thoroughly checking the bags. Overall I recommend you to enjoy the aquapark while you are in Cesme or near the town for a day visit.

Very fun place. If you have kids, dont miss it. You can pay with card but you need to have at least 20tl in cash per person for deposit. If you don’t have the send you to the nearest bank to withdraw some cash. Even that we try to give euro for deposit they didn’t accept them :(

The entry is 70 lira per person with free parking. The food and drink there is expensive. There were amazing slides there such as the king cobra slide. You also get to experience very powerful waves once a day at one of the pools there. Very relaxing and nice warm water.

Alaçatı Değirmenleri is a picturesque destination renowned for its ancient stone windmills, charming cobblestone streets, and stunning panoramic views of the town. The mills are well-preserved compared to other mills in Turkey. Visitors can enjoy a peaceful stroll through the city in the morning before it gets crowded. It is also an excellent spot for lunch after exploring the streets of Alaçatı.
It gets crowded during the summer season, but since it was the end of September, the weather was nice and there weren't many people. You can spend a few hours there enjoying the restaurants and shopping.
Aiko — Google review
There's about 4 or 5 windmills here, and the views around them are great. There isn't much to see, so you don't need too much time. You can sit and enjoy the view by drinking tea or coffee.

Cesme Castle, dating back to 1508, holds a significant place in Ottoman history and offers stunning sea views. The castle served as a military fortress protecting the region from invasions. Visitors can explore defense machinery and sculptures within the castle grounds and climb its stairs for panoramic city views. Additionally, special events are held at the castle from time to time.
Çeşme Castle stands on higher ground and offers beautiful views of the sea and town. It’s a great spot for photos and a nice place to enjoy some history in a calm atmosphere.
Edward D — Google review
This castle, built by the Italians, stands on the town's seaside square. It faces the sea, overlooking the coastline, the opposite shore, and offering a panoramic view of the entire town. The entrance fee is 100 lira, but foreign tourists are charged double. The castle is made of stone and consists of three inner sections, designed for defense. Inside, there are several exhibition halls, one of which showcases the naval battle between the Turkish and Russian fleets off the coast of Çeşme. Of course, the most impressive aspect remains the Italian architectural craftsmanship.

Beautiful castle, fantastic to walk around on the high walls. Beautiful view on the harbor! Unfortunately we a little were disappointed because there was little information provided on the origin of the building and where all the rooms/places were for. So definitely a go for the view but not so much to learn.

Marina
Çeşme Marina is a modern harbor situated on the western edge of the town, offering various services for yachts and boats. The marina boasts a promenade, a shopping center, and an array of restaurants and cafes where visitors can savor delightful meals while enjoying picturesque views of the sea and sunset. Located on the Aegean coast in Turkey, Çeşme is renowned for its crystal blue seas and serves as a popular holiday resort town.
Beautiful positive port in which you can shop or eat a delicious breakfast, lunch or dinner with tranquility and quality. We spent a Saturday morning walking and having breakfast in a restaurant and it is very nice to spend the day there. You have parking to park the car near the port and not worry. The village is beautiful, worth visiting.
Pablo — Google review
A magical marina for sunset strolls, seaside dining, and stylish shops! Çeşme Marina is a picture-perfect destination, especially during sunset. The golden hour here is truly something special — soft sea breeze, boats gently rocking, and the entire sky painted in warm hues. It's the perfect place for an early evening stroll. The marina is surrounded by a wonderful mix of restaurants and shops. You’ll find waterfront dining spots like Ferdi Baba (open daily until 12:00 AM), famous for its seafood and meze, and Tuval Restaurant (open until 1:00 AM) with a creative Turkish-Mediterranean menu and great cocktails. If you're craving something quick, Kahve Dunyasi serves excellent Turkish coffee and desserts (open till 11:00 PM). There are also stylish boutiques and souvenir stores, many staying open until 10:00–11:00 PM, perfect for post-dinner browsing. Whether you’re shopping for local crafts or just window-shopping, there’s a lot to enjoy. One of my favorite touches: the marina is filled with well-placed benches and quiet sitting areas where you can relax, enjoy the view, or have a peaceful conversation. It’s all thoughtfully laid out to encourage you to slow down and enjoy the moment. If you're in Çeşme, don’t miss this place. Especially during sunset — it’s unforgettable.

Sera Beach is a well-maintained and family-friendly beach with amenities such as toilets, showers, and comfortable seating under the shade of large trees. The prices for entry, food, and drinks are reasonable. The atmosphere is welcoming and the staff is attentive. While some visitors find the music too loud, others appreciate the cool tunes. The beach offers clean water in the morning and a mix of sand and stones along the shore.
This is an amazing beach club in Cesme considering how affordable it is and it is located in one of the most beautiful beaches around here. Zehra, the manager in charge, is super sweet and understanding and has totally brought the vibes up. Some may remember this place as Sera Beach but this is a completely new beach as part of the Sisus Otel and we love coming here all the time. There is no loud music, the food is good, and the water is heavenly 🙏🏼

Sea is clean and beautiful, great for swimming, just a bit stony to go in. On the entrance we were met by grumpy man collecting 650 tl/per person. We asked and he confirmed that this amount can be offset in the cafe on food and drinks. But after we had something to eat (average and expensive), we were told that 650 (€15 roughly) was for sun bed and umbrella only. What a rip off. I love Turkey but lately it's not worth going because you are constantly either overcharged or tricked one way or another. Not a great holiday feeling. Such a shame.

Very nice beach. It is very well arranged, it has toilets and showers. Good for families and for couples. Nice music. It has the chairs on grass and there are couple of big trees that give enough shadow to many people. The price is today 30 tl per person. The price of food is quite fair and it's quite good too.
Javier G — Google review
Been going there since the early 90's, when the beach only had three fishermen's shacks serving basic food and drink. The beach was very pristine, and unknown to the general public. These days, it's run by a business with somewhat shady practices. They want to incentivize people to rent their beachside chairs, so they don't clean the shoreline (which apparently is not part of their concession, and thus, in their view not their problem) - have fun entering the beautiful turquoise sea through plastic caps, bottles, and cigarette butts. Music probably is a taste thing, but when cheap music is blasting at full volume, it becomes a distraction from nature. It's a shame - used to be a paradise, now it's corrupted (at least during high season).

The beach is really beautiful. Compared to nearby beaches such as the White beach, it is cheaper, since you don't need to spend 50 euros, still the enterance fee is 60TL per person. Staff barely speak English or any other language. Toilet is outside of bar and it's in a horrible condition.

Kocakarı Plajı is a well-known yet secluded beach in Cesme. The seabed transitions from stones to sand, but it can get deep a few meters out. While the area boasts stunning natural beauty, there's room for improvement in terms of cleanliness, with scattered broken glass and sharp objects. Despite this, the water is clear and refreshing, perfect for swimming with some fish around. The public beach is free but lacks amenities like shades or beds.
A beautiful, peaceful beach I absolutely loved it! The area was calm, clean, and very nice overall. I discovered it on Google Maps and decided to give it a try, and I’m so glad I did. It was definitely worth it. I really enjoyed swimming there!

This area is beautiful, the sky, the landscape, the sea... what isn't beautiful is that it could use a clean up. There's broken glass in the sand, sharp bottle caps, etc. The actual water is great, clear, not very cold (though not what I would call warm, either). There is a lounging area next to it with chairs, umbrellas, and loungers that has some drink and food service, but it costs 25 tl to use the area (without food or drink).

(Translated by Google) I had my first kumru experience here. It was delicious and I highly recommend trying it. They serve pickles on the side, which was also very nice. The price was 350 TL. (Original) İlk kumru deneyimim burada oldu. Tadı çok iyiydi denemenizi tavsiye ederim. Yanında turşu ikram ediyorlar o da çok güzeldi. Fiyat 350tl

(Translated by Google) The kumru was delicious. Service was fast. But while the price was 250 just behind, here it's 350, which is high. The waiters take away everything before it's finished. 4 for the sake of taste. (Original) Kumrunun tadı güzeldi. Servis hızlı. Fakat hemen bir gerisinde fiyat 250iken burada 350 fiyat yüksek Garsonlar önündekini bitmeden alıyor eksi Lezzetin hatrına 4

$$$$expensive
Seafood restaurant
Fish restaurant
Nestled in the picturesque Çeşme Marina, Ferdi Baba Restaurant is a seafood lover's paradise that beautifully captures the essence of coastal dining. With a menu brimming with locally sourced fish and shellfish, this family-owned establishment has been delighting patrons for over 30 years. The culinary team expertly blends traditional Turkish flavors with Mediterranean influences, ensuring each dish bursts with freshness and taste.
I visited this restaurant on a Monday evening, I was surprised the kitchen was still open, since we arrived at around 21:30. I can definitely recommend the shrimps and the octopus. The staff was friendly, and spoke some English. The prices were pretty expensive, but it makes sense considering the very central location next to the Cesme marina. Overall, I would definitely recommend if you are in the area!

Our hotel, Marriott Izmir recommended this restaurant and it exceeded our expectations! The host was very hospitable and showed us all the different seafood and dishes available , including various cooking options. Service was fantastic, we ordered a bottle of local Sauvignon Blanc and two types of fish, grilled and fried. The grilled local octopus was perfectly cooked and highly recommended. We were also served a dessert fruit platter and tea, what a splendid Turkish hospitality! The backdrop view of the Marina was also a highlight, it was a shame we had to rush off otherwise we could easily spend a whole afternoon here!

We had such a great time here! The place has a really cozy vibe and the food was super tasty. Big thanks to Eren for being so kind and attentive — he really made our night even better! We’ll definitely be back soon! Strongly recommended!

My favorite fish restaurant in Cesme. The service is very good, waiters are very attentive. Our waiter Halil was very helpful and friendly from beginning to end. Food is very fresh, environment is nice. It is on the expensive side but a Turkish fish restaurant experience with a beautiful view is worth it.

We visited this restaurant twice within a short time, and each experience was outstanding. The seafood was excellent, with the calamari and octopus being absolute standouts. The oysters could have been cleaned a little more carefully, but that was a minor detail. Service was fast and attentive, and special thanks go to Mr. Tuna for his hospitality. Prices are on the higher side, but the quality and atmosphere make it more than worth it. Easily one of the best seafood restaurants in the country.

We just had the warm meze and some Seafood which was very good. And, the service together with the complimentary fruits and desert made our day.
Rak — Google review
food and location are very good. however, the supposedly complementary bread and olive oil was charged 100tl per person. also, the service fee is 10% of the bill, even though we ordered inside by ourselves (they don't have menus for guests). the staff is nice, but hidden charges are ridiculous. you can see our check for 2 dishes and 2 appetisers

Coming from NYC, this was a great dining experience we were looking for at a coastal sea town. You can order from the menu or chose with your eyes from the 20+ mezze options of vegetables/seafood and then fresh fish prepared anyway you want. Everything was super fresh and delicious. Prices are on the higher end for the area but worth it and great service. Lots of nice shops in the area to walk around before or after.

Fast food restaurant
Restaurant
Burger King is a popular fast-food destination renowned for its delicious grilled burgers, crispy fries, and creamy shakes. Imagine enjoying your meal while soaking in a stunning sea view at sunset—what a treat! The staff here are known for their quick service and friendly demeanor, making your dining experience even more enjoyable. While the prices are reasonable, it's worth noting that there aren't any restroom facilities on-site, which can be inconvenient if you need to freshen up before indulging in your meal.
There was good place and have perfect sea view with sunset. The restaurant worker's are pretty quick for orders and polite. Good food taste. The price is average in this place. But there haven't an any toilet, it's bad because you should wash your hands before eating. You can eat in restaurant or you can eat outside restaurant with perfect view.

Long wait, a lot of flies flying around the kitchen, air conditioning was either not working or barely working. The burger was barely warm, french fries and onion rings were cold and greasy. Hızlı Burger in Alaçati has better burgers. I only stopped here to see if the burger was truly the same as in the USA. It was the same taste but since there are other local restaurants with better burgers I will not ever be coming back.

22/07/24 Cesme Marina. After waiting for sometime in a line to make my order, to my surprise I was told to go to the cashier where they normally serve ice- cream lane. I was extremely disappointed and frustrated as I turned to go to this line, I realized people after we’re waiting in the line. This meant I had another 6 people ahead of me. The young man who told me the line has changed ( who apparently is the manager) I requested he should have had a SIGN point out where the taking order registered has moved to!!!! The manger of ignoring my words in putting a sign instead repeated his words by saying the line is over there. People who were there and witnessed agreed about the sign and the manager took no notice and went on his business!!!! I would like the private owners to take charge to educate their manager. Please I would like a feed back to the end result!

Public toalets its in better condition and cleaner from the shop all the floor inside and outside the store its glue.

This must be the worst Burger King i have seen. Totally unprofessional, filthy, dirty, stinks inside. 15min wait time on a couple of burgers at 11am. There was no customers but us, no one seemed to care that the place was filthy -floors, tables everything. This is about as far from ex-Burger King standards as it can get. Avoid at any cost. (And the veggies on out Whopper were old - not fresh)
