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. 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.
