Fort Lauderdale Shoreline
 
An unexpected charm of this city is getting to public transport and traversing the scenic waterways to avoid the proverbial traffic. Yes, as with the other main thoroughfares in Miami, there is a traffic rush hour to contend with. But there are tri-rail chugs by clogged motorways as well as coastline all of 23 miles as options to get around. For quick escapes, you might want to board the cruise shops daily that would take you to Port Everglades as well as in airboat rides. Or maybe, hop on quickly to inexpensive flights at the Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport.
 
Fort Lauderdale Waterways
 
The southeastern coast of Florida is where Fort Lauderdale is situated, including over 300 miles of inland waterways so it’s not a surprise why it earned the title, “Venice of America.”
 
Here at Fort Lauderdale, it’s not easy to just be an observer. You need to take part in the dynamic vibes it exudes. Typical weekends will be out there on the beach while you groove to the island music at Aruba Beach Café holding on to your tropical cocktails, for instance. Or perhaps, din at their top Italian restaurant along Las Olas Boulevard, Louie Bossi’s Ristorante Bar Pizzeria where yummy dishes are for your indulgence. You can also try checking out the Broadway Center for the Arts to watch interesting Broadway shows and live concerts. Or if you’re not the adventurous type of person, try checking out museums like the Museum of Discovery and Science or maybe do some shopping at nearby Galleria.

What else? Fort Lauderdale is a city you couldn’t ignore – with quite an eclectic balanced mix of everything – diverse neighborhoods, great dining and shopping options, culture and arts, beaches and natural attractions, and city leisure activities you will not get tired of.

Fort Lauderdale’s Beginnings

 
It was in 1938 when the city of Fort Lauderdale is termed for a Second Seminole War fortification on the banks of the New River. It was at this time that Major William Lauderdale spearheaded a group of Tennessee volunteers in the south along the east portion of Florida to take the Seminole agricultural lands and meet in a battle with the tough Indian warriors. The “new river settlement” is what is now a burgeoning city that combines the city and beach beautifully. Long-time locals and residents will tell you that this has to be the best thing they can think of growing up in Fort Lauderdale.
 

Location

 
Fort Lauderdale is one of the beautiful cities on the southeastern coast of Florida. It is a renowned tourist destination. It is nestled between West Palm Beach and Miami. It is about 25 miles or 40 km of North Miami lying along the Atlantic Ocean near the New River’s opening. It is a primary city of Miami’s Metropolitan area. It is also the largest city in Broward County. Known as the ‘Yachting Capital of the World’ – the all-year-long pleasant weather makes it ideal for the activity. Aside from that, this lively city offers several good neighborhoods to visit and discover through its waters, or through the city whether in broad daylight or on fine moonlit nights.
