Igidae Coastal Walk makes for a wonderful hike along the shore of the Sea of Japan. The path itself is of moderate difficulty, with some parts featuring pedestrian bridges and others running directly through natural terrain. The entire path is about 4km long and should take about 2 hours to complete in its entirety, but there are access points along the way which you can use to cut through to a nearby bus stop. The trail can be done both north to south and vice versa, although heading north is reportedly easier and comes with an added bonus of finishing the hike at the scenic Oryukdo Skywalk, standing on a see-through platform and looking down onto the rocky shore.

The striking town of Calvi is dominated by the imposing citadel, which towers over the town from atop a hill by the sea. Its fortifications and surrounding wall enclose also some old houses and a 13th-century cathedral. The town's marina has numerous pleasant cafés and restaurants, while the 6 kilometres of sandy beaches attract sun-seekers from around the island.

In the heart of Konak Square stands İzmir's most iconic landmark, the Clock Tower. Erected in 1901 to mark the 25th anniversary of Sultan Abdul Hamid II's reign, the tower has a height of 25 metres and features four floors and an octagonal plan, characterised by a white marble platform and cut stone structures. No visit would be complete without a photograph next to the majestic monument.
