Lara Beach, Mediterranean beach resort in Antalya, Turkey
Lara Beach is a Mediterranean shoreline in the Antalya area featuring a long expanse of brown sand and a string of upscale hotels. The waterfront is distinguished by its proximity to the Lower Duden Waterfall, which drops directly toward the coast.
This stretch of coast was once a natural beach but underwent major transformation beginning in the late 1960s as Turkey developed its Mediterranean shoreline into a tourism destination. The shift brought hotels, resorts, and facilities that reshaped the landscape within a generation.
Local eateries here serve Turkish specialties like gözleme alongside international fare, showing how the beach has adapted to welcome visitors from many places. The food reflects both regional cooking traditions and the cosmopolitan nature of the destination.
Regular minibus services connect this beach to Antalya city center, with the ride taking roughly 45 minutes. The beach itself is easily accessible, and facilities like showers, parking, and food vendors are distributed along the shore.
This shore carries an environmental certification recognizing its water and sand quality. Visitors will notice that large aquarks and water sports operators are integrated directly into the beach, making them easily accessible from the sand.
