From the great weather year-round to the miles of pristine beaches, from the coastal towns to the boat-filled harbors, from the outdoor recreation on a perfect day in summer (or fall, or spring, or winter) to the t-shit and tank top nights, it’s obvious that Mother Nature has Fort Lauderdale’s back. 

One of the largest recreational harbors on the East Coast, Fort Lauderdale is a popular destination for locals and tourists. Sun, sand, and surf meet relaxation with plenty of party. Fishing, swimming, and aquatic sports abound, but so does sitting in a beach chair reading a favorite novel or sipping a mimosa in between sets of beach volleyball. 

Embark on a pirate adventure, rent a catamaran, hop on a jet ski, swim with sea turtles, scuba dive, or take an alligator tour…just stay in the boat.
