for. Here you'll find a calmer and less chaotic version of Miami Beach –

but with the same sugary sands and crystal clear water. There are still par-

waterline than raucous groups of college kids. Backing the shoreline, the

palm tree-lined promenade bustles with visitors looking to shop and dine

in the many establishments along it. There are also beach chair and water

sports equipment rentals near the shore. Recent visitors loved Fort Lauder-

dale Beach for its wide, expansive shoreline, with some noting that even

when there were a lot of people, it didn't feel crowded. Many were also

impressed with how clean the beach is, adding that its calm waters make

it a great place to bring kids. There is no charge to enter the beach, but

on-site parking will cost you $1.75 per hour. Sun Trolley's Las Olas Link and

Beach Link routes also stop by the beach, or you can take the No. 11 or

40 bus to one of the stops along North Fort Lauderdale Beach Boulevard.

The beach welcomes visitors 24 hours a day. 6
