Summer Ferry Services Increase in the Gulf of Izmir
During the summer months, the Gulf of Izmir transforms into a delightful maritime excursion alongside urban transit via İZDENİZ ferries. On warm summer evenings, schedules on the Konak, Karşıyaka, Bostanlı, and Üçkuyular routes are extended, while seasonal gulf routes to Foça, Mordoğan, and Urla also commence operations. In this announcement, we have compiled Izmir's summer ferry schedules, evening cruise options, and how to access the latest timetables.
Inner-City Gulf Routes
The İZDENİZ gulf ferries operating between Konak, Karşıyaka, Bostanlı, and Üçkuyular are Izmir's most beloved mode of transport, offering sunset views of the Kordon. During the summer period, evening services run until late hours, while the Bostanlı–Üçkuyular car ferry route provides service for vehicle crossings.

With the summer season, outer gulf routes such as Konak–Foça, Karşıyaka–Mordoğan, and Konak–Urla are added to the schedule. These routes offer a practical alternative for passengers wishing to reach coastal towns with a short sea voyage from Izmir.
