Visit
Finding
Cunda.
Airports, transfers, ferry routes — the practical shape of getting to the quieter side of the island.
Finding
The Island
Closer than it feels.
Cunda Island lies on the North Aegean coast, connected to Ayvalık by a bridge. From the mainland, the road narrows; the houses thin out; the island opens toward Lesvos and the sea. TEN sits on the quiet side, a short walk from the water.
Getting Here
Four ways to arrive.
Most guests arrive by air into Balıkesir — the closest airport, with a handful of domestic flights from Istanbul each day. İzmir offers more frequent service and a longer drive. From Lesvos, a short ferry reaches Ayvalık directly.
Private transfers from any of these points can be arranged upon request — write to us ahead of your stay and we’ll coordinate.
