Flag of Kuşadası

The flag of Kuşadası is white with the town's emblem in the middle.
The emblem of Kuşadası is made of two adjacent, light blueish violet rectangles with a dark blue border. The left rectangle is charged with the silhouette of a dove, with four pairs of feathers as wings. The bird might refer to the name of the town, which means in Turkish "Bird's island". The colours of the pairs of feathers are, from top to bottom, yellow, orange, turquoise, and blue. The right rectangle is inscribed with the blue writing "KUŞADASI BELEDİYESİ" (Kuşadası Municipality).

On 3 July 2003, the Turkish Maritime Organization transferred the operation rights of the port for a period of 30 years, which includes sheltering, pilotage, tugging, water supply, handling, waste removal, passenger lodge administration, repair and maintenance services to the cruise ships visiting the port. Ege Ports was Global Ports Holding's (website) first acquisition.

The flag of Ege Ports is blue. Above are three waves in different shades of blue, a bit more greenish than the base colour. Beneath the waves is an inscription of white capitals, separated by blue horizontal lines: "EGE" / "PORTS" / "KUŞADASI" (in smaller letters).
