Waterfront in Çeşme

On the water's edge of antique Erythrai, three generations of family balıkçı in the peninsula's quiet north

The 1975 Dalyan harbour fish house that defines what a Çeşme balık restoranı should taste like

Türkiye's first lobster restaurant, Tuğrul Erol's Çiftlikköy room since 1974 and Vedat Milor's consistent Aegean pick

Waterfront boutique rooms with a private slip of beach

Since 1993, the fishing-harbour family room that defined Port Alaçatı before the marina arrived around it

The original Şifne address of the Kabak fish dynasty, the quiet one, where the locals still go

Sertan's small seafood room on the Yıldızburnu cape, water-edge tables, sharp kitchen, prices that still make sense by Çeşme standards

Mordoğan iskele room facing the sea, the working-village fish counter that yacht trade hasn't reached

The Yılmaz family's Çiftlikköy seafront since 2009, the quietest Çeşme fish table looking across to Sakız
