Las Olas Boulevard has always been Fort Lauderdale’s most charming thoroughfare. Las Olas is at the forefront of everything from fashion boutiques and art galleries, to memorable restaurants, sidewalk cafes and bars.
Running almost parallel to Fort Lauderdale New River on its way to the Atlantic Ocean, Las Olas is a broad avenue divided by a wide landscaped median of flowers and towering shade trees. Over the canal at the east end of the tree lined median, in the Colee Hammock locale, are more shops, restaurants, and stores too unique to describe it all worth exploring! Las Olas is within walking distance of the beach, where Las Olas meets the ocean.
A few minutes from most hotels and easily accessible by water taxi or land taxi, Las Olas is a lively, pulsating, world class boulevard. Night or day, Las Olas is the place to be.
The City of Fort Lauderdale is situated on the southeast coast of Florida, centrally located between Miami and Palm Beach. Encompassing more than 33 square miles with a population of nearly 167,000. Fort Lauderdale truly lives up to its designation as the “Venice of America.” With 20 miles of Atlantic coastline, and miles of navigable waterways on the Intracoastal Waterway, Fort Lauderdale, Florida is an outdoor lover’s paradise.
Fort Lauderdale is a city of islands held together by an intricate web of canals, rivers, bays and waterways hundreds of miles long. Needless to say, boating is a favorite city pastime, whether zooming along on a speedboat, enjoying a fishing charter, or cruising the coastline by yacht. Las Olas Boulevard, a shoppers paradise, is the chic new shopping and trendy dining area of cheap replica watches downtown. If sports are more your inclination, dozens of golf courses and hundreds of public parks allow you to absorb the great Florida outdoors. Cultural arts are also popular. Water taxis bring theater-goers from throughout the city to the Performing Arts Center on the water.
