About Fort Lauderdale
Sunny, warm Fort Lauderdale, Florida is a wonderful place in the south eastern part of Florida. Marked by beaches and soft sand, delightful ocean waves, and nearly perfect weather, Fort Lauderdale is, without question, a very popular vacation destination.
Home to eight beaches,(Deerfield, Hillsboro, Pompano, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea, Fort Lauderdale, Dania, Hollywood, and Hallandale) the Greater Fort Lauderdale region is certainly not without plenty of space to relax in the rich sun underneath of shading palm tree. Hundreds of hotels offer luxury or simplicity with close proximity to the beaches.
If sand and waves aren't your thing, Fort Lauderdale offers a wide variety of entertainment. Everything from historical museums to modern music and dance makes Fort Lauderdale a spot for all sorts of tourists. Perhaps a trip to the Art and Culture Center of Hollywood will make its way to your itinerary or the Florida Grand Opera or Fort Lauderdale Children's Theatre. With plenty of art centers, stages, and other entertainment venues, each night of your vacation will prove to be nothing short of exciting. For history buffs, perhaps you may enjoy a visit to the Fort Lauderdale History Museum, International Swimming Hall of Fame, Plantation Historical Museum, or My Jewish Discovery Place Children's Museum.
Fort Lauderdale offers a stunningly large number of restaurants (estimated around 4,000) which will delight your taste buds and please every hungry appetite. Shopping seems almost as large in this city with malls, boutiques, department stores and more, plus plenty of local transportation to get you exactly where you need to go!
