Start your day visiting the magestic Castle of the city. The ticket is 500 tl and it will take you about 2 hours to visit it all.

Be aware that they don't accept euros so...use your card or exchange your money before.

After visiting the castle, get lost walking around the streets of the old town. Explore souvenirs shops, take pictures at the doors with bouganvillea, walk along the beach and have lunch in one of the many local spot.

I personally had a Tombik plate with Ayran (a tipical drink made with yogurt, water and salt) in a place and then i went in another one to get my desert: pistachio baklava with ice cream!

Here some spots that i can recomend you:
