Sights
Öküz Mehmet Pasha Caravanserai
A fortified 17th-century inn for merchants, just across from the port. It is being restored, so expect to see it from outside only; check locally.
4 things within 20 minutes of the ship in Kuşadası
For short stops, hot days and anyone who'd rather not watch the clock. Times are from the Ege Port Kuşadası cruise terminal.
Food & drink
Kaleiçi old quarter
The old walled quarter behind the harbour: narrow lanes, whitewashed houses, small mosques and plenty of places for meze, grilled fish or Turkish coffee.
Sights
Pigeon Island (Güvercinada) and castle
A small fortified island joined to the town by a causeway, with gardens, a tea garden and views back over the harbour. It is about 15 minutes' walk from the ship.
Beaches & parks
Ladies Beach (Kadınlar Denizi)
The town's best-known sandy beach, about 3 km south of the port, with loungers and cafés along the front. A short taxi or dolmuş ride.
