Turkey has a wide variety of climates and there’s a good chance that no matter when you want to go, somewhere in the country will be at least tolerable, if not ideal. Climate conditions are at ts hottest on the Aegean coast during the summer months of July and August where the heat is
tempered only slightly by offshore breezes. This can prove difficult for those who are not true sun worshippers and perhaps the best time to visit would be in the Spring or the Autumn when the weather is gentler and more bearable. The Aegean region centered on Izmir is a true breadbasket,
with low hills and higher mountains framing fertile valleys full of rich alluvial soil. The dependable summer sun produces bumper crops of tobacco, cotton, sunflowers, olives, figs, peaches, pears and apples.
