Sandland – The Sand Sculpture Museum / Antalya
A Journey Through Art, Shaped by Sand and Stars

Are you ready to explore art under the stars? Located on Antalya’s beautiful Lara Beach, Sandland is more than just a sculpture exhibition — it’s a vast universe crafted entirely from sand. Every year, it attracts thousands of art lovers from around the world with its ever-changing themes and magical atmosphere, earning its place as one of the most prestigious open-air sand sculpture museums on the planet.

Over 10,000 tons of river sand are transformed into towering monuments — some reaching several meters high — using nothing but water and sand. The result? A breathtaking gallery of masterpieces that feel alive with imagination.

Overview

Sandland reinvents itself every year with a brand-new theme.
This year’s theme: “Space Odyssey”
From Leonardo da Vinci’s visionary sketches to the historic missions of the Wright Brothers, Yuri Gagarin, and Neil Armstrong — and into the world of science fiction legends like Star Wars and Star Trek — this year's sculptures celebrate humanity’s fascination with space.

But Sandland is not just for looking — it’s for experiencing.
