Seferihisar district area borders on other Izmir districts of Urla to the west and Menderes (Cumaovasi) to the east, and touches Izmir’s western-most metropolitan district of Guzelbahce in the north. Seferihisar town center is situated slightly inland at an altitude of 28 m and the urban tissue extends towards the sea as composed of seven quarters, among which the part called Sigacik stands somewhat separately from the rest at a distance of 5 km, has its own port and made a name by its own right. The wide area of the district center partly accounts for its high population and an urbanization rate of 51 %, while the general impression received is rather rural in some of its sections. Both the center town and the district as a whole preserves an overall outlook of a pleasant resort area bearing typical Aegean characteristics.
