Which Day Is Side Market and How Do You Get There?

Which day is Side market? Saturday! Across from the mosque at the flag junction — plus how to get there by dolmus from Kumkoy and Evrenseki.

Quick Answer: Side market is held every Saturday, around the flag junction directly across from the mosque. It's easily reached by dolmus (minibus) from Kumkoy and Evrenseki.

For one of the most colourful mornings of your holiday, the Side Saturday market is perfect. Haggling among stalls of fresh fruit, spices, textiles and souvenirs is a joy all its own.

How to Get to Side Market

Dolmus (minibus): Minibuses from Kumkoy and Evrenseki drop you right by the market area; the most economical option.
Taxi: Fast and comfortable, door-to-door from your hotel to the market entrance.
On foot: For central Side and nearby hotels it may be a short walk away.
