Izmir

What's the weather like in Izmir in September?

Sitting on the western shores of Turkey, Izmir is a buzzing city and popular beach resort along the country’s Aegean coastline. Although summer is drawing to a close in September, you can still experience the hot, dry weather, thanks to the area’s Mediterranean climate. Temperatures are still very warm at the start of the month but begin to fall as September goes on. It’s still a great time to visit Izmir for a relaxing beach holiday though, and you can mix up your days with fun-filled boat trips around the coast.
