Windsurfing in Turkey

Saturday, April 25th, 2009 / admin

Several locations along Turkey’s Aegean coast draw windsurfers (sailboarders) from around the world because of their excellent conditions.

Prime among them is Alaçati, at the tip of the Çesme peninsula west of Izmir. A protected bay with a sandy bottom, few rocks and reliable steady winds make this—as the locals put it—a windsurfing paradise.

Akkum, two km west of Sigacik (southwest of Izmir, northwest of Ephesus), also has excellent conditions in its two bays off its two nice sandy beaches, Big Akkum and Little Akkum (Büyük Akkum & Küçük Akkum).
