One of Greece's most popular islands, Chios is located in the Aegean Sea, directly opposite Çeşme. It is one of the closest islands to Turkey. The island, named ‘Chios’ in Greek, was actually under the rule of the Byzantine and Ottoman Empires for a very long time. Research and investigation of the remains have confirmed that the island's history dates back to the Neolithic Age. It is one of the islands that those who want to witness many historical periods and civilisations wish to visit by purchasing a Çeşme - Chios ferry ticket.
Chios Island, accessible via ferry services from Çeşme, also includes two other Greek islands: Koyun/Oinusses and Balık/Psara Island. The island's centre is known as Hora or Chios Town. As its name suggests, the main reason for the island's fame and intrigue is its unique mastic trees and the fact that it is the homeland of mastic gum. In addition to the mastic trees, the ferry services from Çeşme to Chios Island also contribute to the island's popularity in tourism with its cultural history, natural beauty, medieval-influenced villages, museums, and beaches. Chios Island is an island that can be reached from Turkey in just 20 minutes by ferry. Due to its proximity to Izmir-Çeşme, frequent tourist services are organised. There are several tourism companies providing this service.
The best time to visit the island is between the beginning of April and the end of September. As it's a more affordable city compared to many holiday resorts, it experiences a tourist influx throughout the summer months. Although it is a busy period for Chios, it is quite easy to find the most affordable Chios ferry tickets during the summer months. There are many places worth seeing, such as the villages of Mesta and Pyrgi, Mavra Volia beach, Chios Port, Kampos, the Archaeological Museum, Agia Markella Monastery, and Olympi Cave.

Like Samos Island, which you can reach by ferry, Chios Island also offers the Greek cuisine, which is very close to our country's taste, especially its unique and fresh seafood. You can also taste the island's natural and beneficial foods. As mastic production is the island's main source of income, you can easily find many products made with mastic, no matter when you visit.
