Traveller notes on Çeşme in August
Other months in Çeşme
Çeşme's forum calls early September still properly hot, cooling only slightly by the end of the month, with evenings starting to feel noticeably fresher. Regulars flag wind as the local wildcard — the Aegean coast runs windier than Turkey's Mediterranean side, with reports ranging from a strong 40 km/h blow to barely noticeable, depending on the week. The town itself empties out once local schools restart in mid-September.
