The weather in Turkey in September contributes to comfortable rest

Often we become hostages to established myths. One of them is the belief that rest at the sea is possible only in the summer. Therefore, in Turkey - a country that has recently become a favorite vacation spot for Russians - in the summer the apple has nowhere to fall. What does not normally endure the cold northern natives in the summer in Turkey: scorching heat, sunburn, stuffy nights, jostling and stuffiness in public places and transport. What excursions there are, especially in the mountains! There you can just get a heat stroke. Therefore, having paid a lot of money for a ticket to the Anatolian coast, people spend days on the beach, and learn about the sights of Turkey only from tourist booklets.

Whether it's autumn, especially its first half! At a time when the "sad time" reigns at home, the weather in Turkey in September-October continues to please with warmth. And even more than heat. On the Mediterranean coast are still hot summer days - + 30 degrees. In this case, the temperature of the water, which has warmed up during the long southern summer, remains, as in the bath - + 25-29 degrees. Autumn here is felt except in fresh nights, giving a real rest after a hot day: + 18-24 C.

Weather in Turkey in September is not rich in precipitation. Rains begin in November and are frequent in the winter, but in September they almost never happen. The first half of autumn here is considered a dry period, and for the entire September, no more than 5 mm of precipitation falls on the Anatolian coast. In the mountains, sudden rains and downpours are possible, therefore, when going on an excursion to Pamukkale, Konyu or Kusadasi, one must remember to take an umbrella or take a raincoat.

Since the country is quite extensive from north to south, the weather in Turkey in September may very different depending on the region. On the Black Sea coast, storms and gusty winds can already begin. The western shore of Turkey is washed by the somewhat cool Aegean Sea. Such resorts as Marmaris, Izmir and Bodrum are famous for their summer vacation, as the wind from the sea softens the exhausting summer heat. But in September, especially in the first half of the month, the summer picture is still preserved: warm, clear, the sea is suitable for swimming (+ 22-24 C). Especially comfortable for the autumn holiday is southern Turkey. The weather in September is very hot, reaching an elevation above + 30 degrees in the daytime. The nights are also not cold - +20 degrees - so it is possible to attend night discos in the open air.

The weather in Turkey in September favors hikes in the mountains and trips on excursions. The hot Mountains of the Taurus, covered with fragrant coniferous forests, become accessible to the northerners. You can go hiking on the peaks. If you rest in Kemer in September-October, then a pleasant surprise awaits the tourist: climbing the cable car to the top of the mountain, you can go skiing at the real ski resort, and after half an hour you can warm up on the beach of Kemer. The most visited places in Turkey are the legendary Troy, the miracle of nature Pamukkale, the spiritual capital of the country Konya, Cappadocia, Myra Lycian and other equally interesting places, to visit even better in September than in summer: there is no such debilitating heat and much less tourists. In your pictures will be captured exactly the ancient ruins, and not crowded on them little-known people to you.

Despite the fact that the weather in Turkey in September continues to be summer, the main stream of tourists leaves the country. To attract tourists to their homes, hoteliers are starting to reduce prices. And if the rest in Antalya or Alanya in the summer you can not afford, then in September, this holiday becomes more affordable. And the discounts concern not only the prices for hotels: fruit in the bazaars, clothes in the shops, food in restaurants and cafes - prices in Turkey, starting from September, become "as for their own". Even public transport in Turkey, the so-called shuttle-dolmushi, is becoming cheaper. In a word, September is the most optimal month to sunbathe, to buy and get acquainted with the richest heritage of Turkey.
