Kemer’s population has now reached 20,000 from those small beginnings and many are involved in the tourist trade. Once the season begins the numbers in the town increase tremendously. The town remains busy from spring right through to the approach of winter in November. The Airport still has regular winter traffic so Kemer is accessible once the numbers have departed.
