The Top 10 things to do in Fort
Lauderdale by Isla Campbell
Famous
as one of America's favourite holiday destinations, Florida's Fort
Lauderdale encompasses some of the very best sights and attractions from
the sunshine state, making a rewarding year-round getaway. Renowned
amongst the sailing community for its many marinas, Fort Lauderdale has
built up a steady and strong army of visitors who travel to it every year
for boating, yachting and more. However, there are plenty of other
reasons to visit this sun-kissed beach destination, and here are ten of
the most popular.
Though
all of the beaches in the area have their own unique character and perks,
the most popular by far has to be Fort Lauderdale Beach itself. Thousands
of visitors are drawn to this spotless beachfront all summer thanks to
its miles of clean sand, warm waters and backdrop of busy bars, clubs and
restaurants. For snorkelling around the famous Florida coral reef, head
to Hillsboro Beach, or spend a day on Hollywood Beach to feel like you're
on a movie set.

After
a long day's sunbathing, stretch your legs a little at Sawgrass
Recreation Park, where the Everglades come to life. Jump on one of the
airboat tours and let a knowledgeable guide show you the real Everglades,
complete with alligators and even reconstructed Seminole Indian villages.
Or jump aboard a Jungle Queen Riverboat Tour to take a sightseeing trip
of a lifetime up and down Florida's New River. Stop off for a BBQ on the
Jungle Queen Indian Village Island and keep an eye out for wildlife on
route.
Alternatively,
following 'Florida's Most Beautiful Mile' is another equally good way of
exploring Fort Lauderdale. This bustling downtown walk will take you
through the city's historic district and past many of the top restaurants
and museums, including the Museum of Discovery and Science. Designed for
the whole family, this interactive museum is full of hands-on exhibits, a
massive IMAX cinema and even a replica of a living forest.
Discover
even more of Fort Lauderdale's indigenous wildlife by taking a visit to
Butterfly World. Themed around a large rainforest, this family attraction
has thousands of colourful butterflies, as well as caterpillars too, all
in glass hot houses. Over at Flamingo Gardens you can spend a day
exploring real botanical gardens, where dozens of these brightly-coloured
wading birds live, as well as other wild inhabitants, like the river
otter and even the wild bobcat.
Delving
into Fort Lauderdale's historic past couldn't be easier as the city's
many museums and exhibitions make learning about the area's history a
treat. The Bonnet House Museum & Gardens dates back to the 1920s and,
as such, is listed on America's National Register for Historic Sites.
Once owned by artists Evelyn and Frederic Bartlett, the house and
extensive woodland and swampland grounds were bequeathed to the Florida
Trust and now remain as a conserved and untouched reminder of the city's
bygone days.
Whatever
reason you choose to visit this naturally vibrant and sun-kissed city,
there are many Fort Lauderdale Hotels and restaurants to enjoy in between
attractions.
