Twenty-three miles north of Miami on the subtropical Atlantic Coast, Fort Lauderdale is a sophisticated resort destination as well as the yachting and cruise capital of the world. There are numerous options for airfare to Fort Lauderdale with three major airports in the area that service the city: Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International, Miami International, and Palm Beach International.

The canals offer a twist to sightseeing, with many water taxis and aquatic city tours. From the sea you can catch a glimpse of Florida’s most beautiful waterfront mansions that line the bays and canals. Also, Fort Lauderdale’s proximity to the Bahamas and Caribbean makes tropical cruise travel extraordinarily convenient out of Port Everglades.
Fort Lauderdale’s Fine and Funky Enclaves
Travel to Fort Lauderdale is diverse and eclectic due to the city’s various districts, each with its own personality and character. The Strip, or Fort Lauderdale Beach, was put on the map as a Spring Break mecca during the 1970s and 80s due to the film Where the Boys Are. Elbo Room, the famous spring break bar that was featured in the film, is still standing today at the corner of Las Olas Blvd. and A1A. That intersection may not be as wild today, but its ocean breeze and string of lively bars and restaurants still attracts spring breakers and local beach-goers alike.
Further down Las Olas Blvd. in Downtown, the entertainment district has experienced a major rebirth, attracting waves of locals and visitors alike. Enjoy an evening at the Broward Center for the Performing arts and then wander by the many new restaurants and shops lining the boulevard. This area is also home to Fort Lauderdale’s museums, including the Museum of Art and the Museum of Discovery and Science as well as some historical exhibits covering the Native American and European settler history of Fort Lauderdale. Just to the north, Wilton Manors is a very popular gay and lesbian community within Fort Lauderdale, packed with lively bars, blaring nightclubs and all inclusive resorts. Whatever your orientation may be, this place is certainly worth a visit.
Get In and Get Out
Travel to Fort Lauderdale and experience all of what the southeast Floridian coast has to offer. The city is conveniently close to Miami’s South Beach resorts, clubs and restaurants and just a short drive to the expansive biodiversity of Florida’s Everglades. Additionally, booking your airfare to Fort Lauderdale today will get you that much closer to a luxurious Bahamas or Florida Keys vacation.
