The town on the Çeşme peninsula on the Turkish Aegean is a dream destination for sailors and surfers. This is not only due to the fine sandy bays and crystal-clear water.

The historical centre of Alacati has preserved its original character. To ensure that it retains its incomparable charm, the entire district is a listed heritage site.

Sailing from Alacati (Çeşme), Port Alacati Marina
The Çeşme peninsula reaches far out into the sea. In contrast, the bay extends deep inland. As a result, the water is relatively calm. Perfect sailing conditions prevail due to a constant wind. The place is rightly considered one of the best learning areas in the world.
Sailing enthusiasts enjoy perfect wind conditions and plenty of sun. Especially because of the constant north winds in summer, the bay is an Eldorado for windsurfers and the whole region is a paradise for sailors. When sailing from Alacati, the area north to Ayvalik, including the Greek islands of Lesbos and Chios, are especially recommended.
