For a good mix of older landmarks mixed in with new development, all sitting along a beautiful palm lined beach choose FLB.

I enjoyed the area around the Pier. The beach has great sand and there are numerous restaurants in the area should you feel hungry. A great place for people watching as well as chilling watching the ships parade by in front of you.

I love that you can grab a drink and walk the beach with it. The shops and restaurants are great. I wish there were fresh seafood places right on the beach, but I guess Ft Lauderdale is more of a party area - which is why there are plenty of bars!! Great vacation spot.

The beach is very narrow and close to the busy road. It's nice and clean though, and its right across the street from all the big resorts.

This company is definitely misleading: SO bad, that they changed the name because of the negative reviews it has gottern under Travelooga, which is the owners Daddy! Here is the review already written, but under the old name (Same Business): I bet you won the grand prize if you are reading this. One of you won a bottle of water... More

Try to park the car away from the beach, because you probably won't find any parking spot at the beach. Take your time, have a look around and just go with the city. On the way to the beach, there are those little places where you can buy all kind of stuff, just have a look around and get to... More

AS this beach is the nesting place of sea turtles, there are restriction on what you may do. Just read the signs! All along the A1A all the famous hotels have their "lot". It is a place where you may get tanned,m but it is also a place where you may be seen. We did not see any celebrities, but... More

If you are going to the beach in Ft. Lauderdale be prepared to pay to park, deal with tons of people and traffic. There is no free parking unless you are staying at one of the hotels on the beach. Your best bet is to go early, find a meter, and pay the meter for the time you need. Garage... More

Great beach with easy access, lots of good restaurants and shops within easy walking distance. Especially great during the Winter months just before sundown when you have the beach all to yourself.

Very nice wide beach area and the beautiful waters of the Atlantic off of South Florida. Biggest problem is parking. Good luck finding a space. If you are a family I suggest you travel a few miles north on A1A to Pompano Beech. Parking is easier and the beech area is just as nice. Also plenty of opportunities to find... More
