Fort
Lauderdale is a great destination at any time of year!
Fort Lauderdale is sometimes called the Venice of America. Although
the European Venice has a lot more history and more monuments, Fort
Lauderdale is probably just as popular with tourists - with over 3,000
miles of navigable waterways and miles of golden beaches, it's a great
destination.
In
recent years Fort Lauderdale has reinvented itself. Fort Lauderdale
Beach has undergone a $26-million renovation. You can eat lunch at
cafes overlooking the water, visit shops along the beach, or simply
stroll along the oceanfront.
The
city offers many options for dining, entertainment and shopping.
The Broward Center for the Performing Arts features many Broadway
shows throughout the year. On Las Olas Boulevard you will find a
multitude of art galleries, eclectic boutiques, and sidewalk cafes.
Dining options range from Cuban-American cuisine to fresh seafood
caught in the Atlantic Ocean.
