Fort Lauderdale may come in as the smaller south Florida city when it’s compared to Miami, but this cultural hub is pulsing with an array of museums, galleries, shopping, casinos and its fair share of mangrove-covered parks.

​

You can’t tick Fort Lauderdale off your bucket list without a stroll down the famous Las Olas. The long strip offers an excellent dining scene, bars, shops and several art galleries. A stroll down Las Olas, which means The Waves in Spanish, is sure to put a smile on your face. Famous for being the road where many celebrities live in waterfront properties, you never know who you might bump into while you’re grabbing an iced coffee.
