Dubbed the “Venice of America” by locals and visitors. The Riverwalk is a waterfront area home to an array of parks, shops, museums, restaurants and nightlife. The lush tropical pedestrian walkways are situated along the New River, complete with picnic areas, gazebos and an array of water activities like kayaking and paddle boarding.

Las Olas Boulevard

At the heart of Fort Lauderdale, just steps from the Riverwalk, lies the vibrant Las Olas Boulevard. An avenue lined with palm trees, this is where the beach meets a captivating hub of fashion boutiques, art galleries and sidewalk cafes.

This public beach stretches for miles with soft sand and iconic turquoise blue water. It is the perfect place to soak up the sun, read a good book or for those looking for a more adventurous day, there is even surfing and snorkeling.

Bonnet House Museum and Gardens

A 35-acre historic estate on Fort Lauderdale Beach, beautifully blending art, history and nature. Built in 1920 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this whimsically-designed house was once the romantic winter getaway for artists Frederic and Evelyn Bartlett.
