Dikili

Dikili, a charming district along Turkey's Aegean shoreline, offers a scenic blend of coastal beauty and historical intrigue.  Located about 120 km north of Izmir, Dikili boasts a central town and easy access to the ancient site of Atarneus, waiting to be explored by history buffs.

Beyond its historical significance, Dikili entices visitors with natural wonders like Asiklar Selalesi (Lovers' Waterfall), featuring a captivating upper waterfall, pools, and caves.  History and relaxation collide at Candarli Castle, a perfect spot for capturing memories with a unique backdrop.

Nature lovers can unwind on Fame Beach, soaking in the stunning sea and mountain views.  Immerse yourself in Dikili's olive history at Aterna Zeytincilik, an ancient olive tree said to be 39,000 years old. For a refreshing beach experience, choose between Pissa Plaji's clean sand and lovely water or Ikizler Beach.

Dikili offers a delightful shopping experience. Take home local treats from Cadde Kuruyemis, a specialty and gift shop.  Stroll through the vibrant Dikili bazaar and immerse yourself in the sights and sounds of local vendors selling their wares.

For a taste of nightlife, head to Kayra Beach Club, a popular spot to unwind with the caveat of a potential entrance fee and parking challenges.
