15 Best Things To Do in Fort Lauderdale, Florida

About Fort Lauderdale, Florida

Fort Lauderdale is hands-down Narnia for people who love surfing, sand, and the sun. With beaches extending up to seven miles and an average temperature, the city is arguably one of the best in Florida if you’re into beaches.

Previously, it used to be a hot spot for spring breakers but has since matured into an urban region with fine dining, a laid-back shopping scene, and its fair share of museums.

The Las Olas Boulevard has over 100 boutiques, art galleries, museums, and much more, making it the perfect place for people who only have a day to explore the city. Besides, there’s an option to charter a yacht or take a gondola tour of the area.

Meanwhile, the Bonnet House Museum & Gardens is ideal for people with refined tastes and a love for everything to do with nature.
