Aperlai (ancient Greek: Ἀπέρλαι) was an ancient coastal city in the region of Lycia in Asia Minor, near present-day Sıcak İskelesi in Turkey.
Little is known about the city's history. The city's oldest coins date from the 5th century BC. Literary references only date back to the Roman Imperial period, when Aperlai belonged to the province of Lycia et Pamphylia and was united with the neighboring towns of Apollonia, Isinda, and Simena to form a sympolitia. In 141/142 AD, the city suffered damage from a severe earthquake and received reconstruction assistance from Opramoas of Rhodiapolis. Around the year 240, Aperlai minted its own coins once again.
