Seasonal transitions in Turkey
Overview
Turkey is experiencing seasonal transitions in its coastal regions and domestic economy. As the summer holiday period ends and the school year approaches, tourism in coastal areas like Biga has seen a decline in crowds, with travelers shifting toward more tranquil destinations such as Datça, Bozcaada, and Kaş.
This shift in population is characterized by families returning home and a growing presence of retirees in coastal towns. Simultaneously, the transition is marked by increased agricultural logistics, with heavy vehicle traffic transporting produce like melons, tomatoes, and peaches to markets. While these movements reflect core economic activities, the period is also noted for economic pressures affecting consumer purchasing power and small business stability.
