Izmir is the third most populous city in Turkey, after Istanbul and Ankara, and anchors the largest metropolitan area on the Aegean Sea. It serves as the capital of İzmir Province, which is home to a total population of more than 4.5 million, while the city itself holds around 1.49 million residents. Set on the Aegean coast of Anatolia, the city has a Mediterranean climate of warm, dry summers and mild winters.
The city stretches along the outlying waters of the Gulf of İzmir and reaches inland to the north across the Gediz River Delta, eastward along an alluvial plain fed by several small streams, and into more rugged terrain to the south. Lying almost at sea level, its elevation is only about 2 metres, Izmir has long been a major Aegean port and remains a central hub for the surrounding region.
Prayer Times in Izmir
Izmir observes Turkey Time (UTC+3) year-round with no daylight-saving changes, so prayer times shift only with the natural progression of the seasons rather than with clock adjustments. At roughly 38°N the seasonal swing is pronounced: long summer days push Fajr earlier and Isha well into the evening, while short winter days bring Maghrib to the late afternoon and Fajr later in the morning. Times on this page are calculated using the Turkey Diyanet method maintained by the Presidency of Religious Affairs, the standard followed across the country.
Ramadan in Izmir
During Ramadan, the daily fast in Izmir runs from Fajr (the start of dawn) to Maghrib (sunset), so the suhoor and iftar windows follow the same seasonal pattern as the year-round prayer times. With Turkey on UTC+3 all year and no daylight-saving shifts, the length of the fasting day depends only on the season in which Ramadan falls.
When Ramadan occurs in summer, Izmir's position at about 38°N means longer days and a more extended fast, with iftar arriving late in the evening; when it falls in winter, the shorter days bring an earlier sunset and a shorter fasting period. Checking the daily Fajr and Maghrib times for Izmir on this page is the simplest way to plan suhoor and iftar accurately throughout the month.
