Sights to See

Greater Fort Lauderdale is known as the “Yachting Capital of the World” and has long been a preferred boating destination. But did you know that the area is also home to spectacular scuba diving sites and the vast untouched nature of the Everglades? Multiple area tours – including exclusive, private tours – are available to give you a view of nature like no place else on earth, whether that’s swimming underwater beside an 800-pound “Goliath Grouper” or on an airboat ride spotting exotic species of birds. Even a cruise around the intracoastal is a feast for your eyes, with million-dollar mansions and superyachts at every turn – not to mention magical sunsets and dolphins.

Taste Sensations

From bespoke cocktails at nationally acclaimed rooftop bars to culinary wonders from award-winning chefs, the dining scene in Greater Fort Lauderdale is as cosmopolitan as it gets. Fresh seafood is a staple here, and between October and April you can also indulge in stone crab claws, one of Florida’s most delicious delicacies.

Signature Scents

There’s nothing like a scent that sets the mood and many area hotels and resorts have created their own unique scent that greets you, subtly, as soon as you walk in the door. At B Ocean Resort, it’s their signature aroma of thyme, white tea and organic herbs that captures the essence of a fresh ocean breeze. At Lago Mar Beach Resort & Club, an energizing citrus and ginger fills the air. And you can even take vacation home with you in the form of a candle or diffuser from the hotel gift shop.

The Power of Touch

You’ll feel it in the sand under your bare feet. The refreshing waves. The warmth of the sun. A kiss from your significant other under the stars. The hands of a masseuse. The hug of happiness from your child. Yes, one of the most sensational things about a getaway is how it brings you back in touch with yourself and the people you love.
