Water
Activities:
Shimmering waterways, beautiful sandy beaches,
and a lush tropical climate make Greater Fort
Lauderdale a perfect place to dive into every
possible type of aquatic activity. Above and
below the water, you won’t find as many enjoyable
things to do anywhere else in the world. If
you like to fish, you’re moments from some of
the finest saltwater and freshwater fishing
spots to be found anywhere on earth.
If you’re a diver or snorkeler -- or if you
want to learn how to be one -- we’re home to
some of the most colorful coral reefs in the
hemisphere, along with a remarkable assortment
of intriguing undersea wrecks. If your idea
of the perfect time involves swimming and sunning,
pick a spot along the 23 miles of beautiful
beaches that hug the brilliantly blue Atlantic.
Lie back, soak up some rays, and let the worries
of the world drift away while the waves lap
at your toes. To see more of the area, you’ll
find fascinating guided sightseeing cruises,
or you can rent your own boat or yacht to navigate
the endless miles of beautiful waterways on
your own.
If you’d like to see the area from a more adventurous
point of view, how about windsurfing or parasailing?
You’ll float along the coast with the crisp
ocean breezes as you enjoy a dolphin’s-eye view
of the city skyline. It’s an experience you’ll
long remember. Whether you’re ready to dive
into the waves or just float along in comfort,
Greater Fort Lauderdale’s waterways are waiting
to welcome you!

Golfing:
Water, water everywhere! It’s
both the delight -- and often the downfall --
of golfing in South Florida. Whether you play
an island course where clear bay waters lap
against the shore or an inland course dotted
with man-made lakes, you’ll find that water
plays a role in your game. But then, so do blue
skies, sunshine, and tropical breezes! Whether
you’re a novice or a pro, South Florida truly
is a golfer’s paradise. Many courses boast designs
by the world’s foremost course architects --
earning them consistent ratings among the nation’s
best from Golf Digest and Golf magazine. From
PGA National Golf Club and the national headquarters
of the PGA in Palm Beach to Key West’s only
golf course, the Key West Golf Club, the variety
is endless. Palm Beach, Broward, and Miami-Dade
Counties offer more than 270 public and private
courses. Excellent instruction is available
throughout the region, too.
