Top Things to Do in Lara

From 12 kilometers of golden sand to the spectacular Düden Waterfalls, ancient ruins, world-class shopping, and vibrant nightlife, Lara offers something for every traveler.

Lara: Beach, Fun, and Convenience

Lara is Antalya\'s most accessible resort area, located just 8-12 kilometers from Antalya Airport. Its 12-kilometer stretch of golden sand is one of the finest beaches on the Turkish Riviera, backed by a line of five-star all-inclusive resorts. But Lara is much more than a beach destination. The area is a hub for family entertainment, shopping, and nightlife, with attractions ranging from the spectacular Düden Waterfalls to the Antalya Aquarium and TerraCity shopping mall.

Its proximity to Antalya city center (just 15 minutes) makes Lara an ideal base for exploring the historic Kaleiçi Old Town, the ancient city of Perge, and the broader Antalya region. A Lara all-inclusive resort with nightclub access gives you beach luxury by day and entertainment by night, all within easy reach of the airport and city attractions.
