Lara Airport Transfer & Taxi

Your local guide to Lara

Lara Beach & the sea

Lara Beach is the area's headline attraction: a long, broad stretch of golden sand that has earned Blue-Flag status for its cleanliness and facilities. Unlike much of the pebbly Antalya coast, the soft sand here makes it ideal for families with children and for anyone who likes to walk barefoot at the water's edge. Sunbeds, beach clubs and watersports line the shore, and the gently shelving sea is warm and inviting through the long summer. The backdrop of luxury resorts gives the beach a polished, resort-holiday feel, with everything from quiet sunbathing to lively beach bars within easy reach.

Sights & attractions

The star sight is the Lower Düden Waterfall, where the river plunges over the coastal cliffs directly into the Mediterranean, an unusual and unforgettable scene best viewed from a boat. Beyond the beach, Lara's giant themed resorts are an attraction in themselves, with their fantastical architecture echoing palaces and ancient wonders. Crucially, Lara is close to the historic Kaleiçi old town, with its Roman gate, narrow lanes and harbour, and to the wider city centre. That means you can pair lazy beach days with culture, shopping and old-town dinners, all within a short drive of your hotel.

Food & atmosphere

Lara's atmosphere leans toward comfortable, all-inclusive resort living, but there is plenty beyond the hotel buffets. Along the beachfront and in the surrounding streets you will find seafood restaurants, Turkish grills and cafes serving everything from fresh fish to hearty kebabs and sweet baklava. For more local colour, the old town of Kaleiçi nearby offers atmospheric courtyard restaurants and rooftop bars overlooking the harbour. Evenings in Lara are relaxed: a stroll along the seafront, a long dinner, and perhaps a nightcap with a sea view. It is an easygoing, sociable place built squarely around the pleasures of a sunny holiday.

Practical tips for visitors

Lara is ideal for families and for travellers who want luxury and convenience with the airport on the doorstep. The Kundu resort zone is large and a little maze-like, so a private transfer that drops you right at reception is far less stressful than hailing a taxi. The city centre and Kaleiçi are a short, affordable taxi or tram ride away when you want a change of scene. Bring sun protection for the open sandy beach, and book boat trips early in the day to beat the heat. With everything close, Lara works well even for a short stay or a stopover.

Getting to Lara & your transfer

Antalya Airport (AYT) is the natural arrival point for Lara and it could hardly be closer, at only about 13 km away. The short drive of around fifteen to twenty minutes runs along the eastern edge of the city, so you can be poolside almost as soon as you land. Even on such a quick hop, a fixed-price private door-to-door transfer makes the start of your holiday effortless: a driver greets you by name with meet and greet, tracks your flight in case of delays, provides free child seats for little ones, and stays reachable around the clock on WhatsApp. With the sprawling Kundu resorts hard to navigate by taxi, a private car delivers you straight to your hotel entrance.
