EscapeWizard.com suggests starting your trip with an excursion to one of the many local beaches. Fort Lauderdale boasts seven miles of sand and blue water. Splash in the water, or enjoy time sitting on the sand watching the waves stumble onto the shore.
Next, EscapeWizard.com recommends exploring some of the canals in the city. Fort Lauderdale has been nicknamed the "Venice of America" because of the impressive collection of canals that run throughout the city for residents and visitors to store boats. If you're a boater, rent a boat for the day to explore the waterways. Since Fort Lauderdale is a major site for manufacturing and maintaining yachts, you're likely to see some impressive boats as you explore!
If you're looking for culture, Fort Lauderdale offers many exhibits. EscapeWizard.com recommends checking out the Bonnet House Museum & Gardens. This historical home offers visitors a look at the art and collects of the Birch/Bartlett families. The museum sits on 35 acres along the coast, but its climate invites fish, monkeys and other wildlife to reside on the property. The house hosts many art exhibits each year, and has impressive permanent collections. The house itself was revived when Evelyn and Frederic Barlett married and began to decorate it in the 1930's. When Evelyn gave the house to the Florida Trust for Historic Preservation in the 1980's she ensured visitors would have a chance to enjoy the house she called home for many years.
EscapeWizard.com also recommends visiting the Museum of Art in Fort Lauderdale. It's the most visited art museum in Florida and boasts a wide collection of works. Another museum worth exploring is the Museum of Discovery and Science. It's the home to the state's largest IMAX theatre, so make sure to see what is playing while you're visiting so you can check out the impressive screen! There are also many exhibits throughout the museum worth taking a look at.
Fort Lauderdale is also a great place to learn some military history about the United States of America. The present day Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport stands on the location where Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale once stood decades ago. It was at this location that the U.S. Navy trained many of their sailors during World War II. The base was decommissioned shortly after the war, but the Naval Air Station Fort Lauderdale Museum is a great place to learn about the historic base and its importance during this pivotal time in our nation’s history. EscapeWizard.com highly recommends stopping by this museum to honor the brave sailors of World War II. Vacationers are encouraged to find more information by following this link (http://www.nasflmuseum.com/index.html).
If you want to spend all your time outside soaking up the sun, there are plenty of opportunities to do so! Take a swing at one of the many golf courses -- or enjoy an afternoon walking around Fort Lauderdale's downtown and browsing the shops or enjoying a meal at one of the many restaurants. Check with your hotel concierge for opportunities to snorkel, parasail or Jet Ski!
