Seydikemer is a municipality and district of Muğla Province, Turkey.[2] Its area is 2,208 km2,[3] and its population is 62,622 (2022).[1]

The district and municipality Seydikemer was created at the 2013 Turkish local government reorganisation from part of the district of Fethiye, including the former municipality Kemer.[4][5] The name refers to Kemer and the adjacent village Seydiler.

Located some 30 kilometres (19 mi) inland from Fethiye, this remains very much a traditional Turkish town. There are nevertheless a few expats living here.
