About Lara Plajı

Lara Beach (Lara Plajı) lies south-east of Antalya's city centre, within Muratpaşa district, and together with Konyaaltı Beach it is one of the city's two most important beaches. Its long sandy shore is a fast-growing tourism zone with large resort hotels. To the east it adjoins Kundu beach, which runs in front of pine forests near the mouth of the Aksu River; the Kundu–Lara resort area has grown quickly thanks to its closeness to the city centre and Antalya Airport. The name Lara is said to mean "sand" in Luwian, the language of a people contemporary with the Hittites.
