Kusadasi Overview

Kusadasi is a relative newcomer on the European beach scene, having only been established by yachters about 25 years ago. Before these sailors first moored at the tiny harbour in the 1980s, Kusadasi was a typical Turkish village of fishermen and farmers. Where dirt roads once barely tread, a concrete sprawl has now engulfed the entire township creating Turkey's most popular and hedonistic beach destination on the Aegean coast. more...
