Hotels in Aegean Region, Turkey

The Aegean Region hugs Turkey's western coast, with a Mediterranean climate of hot, dry summers (averaging 85°F/29°C) and mild, wet winters (around 50°F/10°C). It's famous for ancient ruins like Ephesus-the Roman city with its Library of Celsus-and olive groves producing some of the country's best olive oil. In summer, you can windsurf on the Çeşme Peninsula's clear Aegean Sea, while winter is perfect for tasting local wines in Şirince village or exploring the 2,500-year-old city of Pergamon without the crowds.
