Cesme, meaning ‘fountain’, derives its name from the many water sources found in the area. A fortress from the 14th century in Genoa, which was enhanced and renovated by the Ottomans in the 16th century, overlooks the quaint port of Cesme. In the Cesme region, the large Altin Yunus Setur Marina complex, along with the berthing sites of Ilica and Dalyan, is noted for its safety. In the town, the caravanserai built in the 16th century by Süleyman the Magnificent near the fortress has been converted into a hotel. Excellent shopping – top-notch Carpets, leather goods, and a variety of souvenir products are available. At night, a lively and fun atmosphere pervades, especially in the restaurants, cafes, bars, and clubs situated along the promenade. In July, Cesme’s International Song Contest attracts famous artists who add charm and excitement to the town. The area’s thermal spas, along with the natural springs situated just off the coast that mix with the seawater in Ilica Bay, provide soothing relaxation. Southeast of Cesme, beautiful coves offer breathtaking vistas and tranquil nighttime anchorages fully protected from winds and waves. Soon, you will arrive at Sigacik, home to a delightful marina tucked beneath the fortifications from the time of the Genoese. From this spot, the historic site of Teos, famous for its Temple of Dionysus, the god of wine, is easily accessible. It is also an excellent location to sample some of Turkey’s exquisite wines.
