Uetikon am See (also spelled Üetikon am See) is a municipality in the district of Meilen in the canton of Zürich in Switzerland.
It is located on the north bank of the lake of Zürich. Uetikon is located about halfway between Zürich and Rapperswil. In the local dialect it is called Üetike.
The place is divided into Uetikon Grossdorf and Kleindorf. Uetikon is home to a chemical factory of the same name. Except for the chemical plant, the harbour and the train station, most of the municipality is located a bit uphill from the lake.
