Going to visit Ft. Lauderdale next winter and want to find a good spot to spend a day. Looking for some area near the beach with good shopping and restaurants and bars. We are staying near the airport so closer to that the better. Don't know where to go! Someplace available by public transportation.
One of the greatest ways to see Fort Lauderdale is to go downtown and take a ride on one of the water taxis. The ride will cost you about10 but you will see a part of the city that is not visible from the road. There are some absolutely gorgeous homes hidden away on some of the canals of the city. Some of the taxis, like the link I am sending to you, allow you get on and off all areas of the City for a day at one price. The best way to see the City and very relaxing as well. watertaxi.com/watertaxi/fort...
