Explore Fort Lauderdale
You probably know Fort Lauderdale best for its stunning golden beaches. That’s understandable, considering there’s 23 whole miles of them and they’re an easy walk from most hotels and restaurants. Sandcastles, volleyball, open-air dining, and more all await at any of Fort Lauderdale’s certified Blue Wave Beaches. However, when you’ve had enough of the beach (if such a thing is even possible!) there’s lots more to explore in the wet and wild world of the Greater Fort Lauderdale area!
Fort Lauderdale’s nickname is the Venice of America and it’s easy to see why. Discover and explore all of the many canals and waterways of Greater Fort Lauderdale, and you’ll see where the nickname comes from! Whether you’re enjoying a chartered cruise aboard a luxury yacht or embark on one of Fort Lauderdale’s riverfront cruises, you’ll be able to soak up all the sights and sounds, from glittering marinas to beautiful blue waters.
