About Karşıyaka
Karşıyaka lies across the bay from the city centre, a relaxed district with a long seafront, a busy shopping street and ferries to the other shore. It suits visitors staying with family or friends on the northern side and anyone who prefers a local feel.
Karşıyaka is on the İZBAN line north of the city centre, and the HAVAŞ Alsancak–Karşıyaka–Mavişehir bus stops at the Karşıyaka and Bostanlı piers. At night, ESHOT bus 200 links the airport with Mavişehir. A transfer is the easy option with luggage or children.
