pring and autumn are the
best times to visit, since the climate will
be perfect in Istanbul and on the Aegean and
Mediterranean coasts. It will be cool in central
Anatolia, but not unpleasantly so. Visiting
before mid-June or after August may also help
you avoid mosquitoes. The Black Sea coast is
best visited between April and September; there
will still be rain but not so much of it.
laces catering to backpackers usually see
Anzac Day as the
official start of the season; those catering
to package holiday-makers get going in early
May. Peak season is from July to mid-September,
when most Turks take their holidays. The best
time to visit eastern Turkey is from late June
to September. Don't plan to venture east before
May or after mid-October unless you're prepared
for snow.
