Be sure to visit the famous and popular Kus shopping center in the Kaleici quarter, where there is nightlong entertainment. A large, modern marina facilitates life for visiting yachters. Tusan-Kustur Beach, north of Kusadasi, is one of the cleanest beaches and 23 km south of Kusadasi is the charming holiday-resort town of Guzelcamli.
