The town boasts more than 23 miles of beautiful beaches accommodating everyone from surfers to casual sun bathers.

For one of the most adventurous Fort Lauderdale attractions, look no further than the airboat tours. These incredible machines whisk you through the swamps of the Florida Everglades and will leave you breathless as the boats reach high speeds, whizzing past alligators, water buffalo, wild hogs, and exotic birds. Some boat tours will take you through areas where you can view animals in their natural habitat. For an adventure you can't find anywhere else in America, take a swamp tour and discover the world from the only vantage point possible-above it.
For a true southern adventure, take the Jungle Queen Riverboat tour around the outskirts of the city and see the town from a totally different point of view. This old style paddle boat cruises through the water slowly and allows guests to take in the wonderful sites and sounds of the city from the water. Visitors will drift by beautiful Fort Lauderdale estates including the historic Stranahan House, see historical sites, and enjoy the food and beverages served on board. This popular Fort Lauderdale attraction is a great way to enjoy the city and get away from it all at the same time.
The Fort Lauderdale area is a great place to relax and enjoy some time off, but it is also a wonderful place to get some shopping done. In and around the city lie 10 shopping malls and galleries boasting everything from designer wear to the intricate gifts you can only find at specialty shops. Among the great malls are Sawgrass Mills the country's largest outlet mall. Sawgrass Mills has more than 400 retail outlets and is Florida's second largest tourist attraction right behind Walt Disney World®.
