The Ayvalık Strait Bridge is a sleek, modern structure that connects the mainland to Cunda Island, replacing an older causeway. Its clean lines and elevated roadway offer drivers and pedestrians a dramatic approach to the island, with expansive views of the strait and the Aegean beyond. The bridge has become a favorite spot for photographers, especially at sunrise or sunset when the light reflects off the water. It's a quick but memorable crossing that marks the gateway to Cunda's attractions.

Don't miss

  • Drive across at sunset for a dramatic view of the sun setting over the strait.
  • Watch for fishing boats and ferries passing beneath the bridge.
