Coming from the North it was great to be on the beach. After two days though the charm wore off a bit. It's quite sloped so not great for walking along the water. The main road is right next to the beach so there's lots of traffic - which can be fun to watch. There are also a lot of... More

No parking spaces.. Everything is a bit too expensive. Transportation can be better arranged. I did not really enjoy it there were too many people for such a small space.

I like in the area, Ft Lauderdale beaches are beautiful. Water is clear but note there is beach reconstruction going on north of Sunrise due to storms. Enjoy

Beautiful water and view. Sand is hot so wear sandles. Toilets are limited for public. Waves are strong, so be careful with the kids.

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.

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
