Top things to do in Fort Lauderdale
"The great thing about Hollywood North Beach Park is that it’s right next to the West Lake South Trail and the beach!. This means, after completing the West Lake South Trail you can head straight over to chill in the park and get ready for a dip, too. With over 50+ acres to explore, it’s easily one of the best things to do in Hollywood, Florida to just chill out."
"Part vintage surf shack, part sultry outdoor club, Hyde Beach at SLS South Beach hotel is a prime spot to rub elbows with the young and fabulous of South Beach beneath string lighting and palm trees. Inside the bar, you’ll find VIP tables, a DJ booth and dance floor, while outdoors there’s a sprawling space to mix and mingle in the fresh air by the swimming pools. For a debauched weekend daytime pool party, this is one of the hottest scenes in town."
"Hyde Beach offers artful mixology and cuisine from Jose Andrés — all in an over 8,000 square-foot indoor/outdoor space with a gorgeous pool and beach access."
"For those of you who want a little more variety (or for those that don't like shopping), you can stop at Gulfstream Park in Hallandale Beach, where there is something for everyone. Guests have the option to enjoy the casino, horse racing, live entertainment and more."
"Now known as the diner from the Oscar-winning film Moonlight, Jimmy’s Eastside Diner is bright, friendly, and feels like the kind of place people go to hang out – “Your Friendly Neighborhood Eatery” according to the sign out front. In a city full of sleek, modern restaurants with the latest culinary trends, Jimmy’s remains one of the authentic diners left from the 1960s; like any true American diner, this breakfast in Miami is served all day. Jimmy’s serves all the classic breakfast foods like eggs any way you like them, pancakes, bacon, hash browns, and so on, but everything always turns out simply delicious and will certainly hit that spot when you’re craving comfort breakfast food."
"You’re actually looking at the site of one very memorable scene in the Oscar-winning film Moonlight. Dating back to the ’60s, this place is known to serve one of the heartiest all-day breakfast spreads in the city. Bring on the toast, bacon and eggs."
"This omakase-style sushi spot in Wynwood is hidden inside Taco Stand, a Mexican restaurant, and isn’t cheap (but also isn’t incredibly pricey) at $170 a pop. Diners must make a reservation and are sent a code for entry to a secret door on the evening of their reservation. There are two seatings at Hiden Tuesday through Saturday (7 p.m. and 10 p.m.), and the restaurant fits eight people comfortably for an intimate evening."
"Tucked inside the Taco Stand in Wynwood is this elegant dining room behind a secret door.Hiden quickly outgrew its “secret” status thanks to a ridiculously tasty 16-course tasting menu (think freshly steamed rice, aged fish and baked oysters)."
"First up, we have the top-rated French restaurant, Cote Gourmet starting off our list. This sophisticated and luxurious French restaurant is definitely one of the restaurants that you should visit here in the city. Here, you are offered a world-class menu filled with lunch, brunch, and dinner options."
"Little Havana’s shining star offers up Latin bites and beer in an intimate setting that includes a hidden back patio with a tropical vibe. The restaurant boasts locally-sourced ingredients and an award-winning chorizo croquettes dish. Order those for sure and compliment your starter with a short rib burger or a pan con bistec (juicy steak sandwich)."
"DowntownFew things are more fascinating to a South Floridian than seeing how this city went from a swamp to major world metropolis in just over 100 years. You’ll learn all about Henry Flagler, Julia Tuttle, and the rest of the characters that made Miami what it is, as well as rotating exhibits exploring everything from the legacy of Hurricane Andrew to photos of the lost era of elderly Jews in South Beach. The museum also offers frequent walking tours with preeminent Miami historian Paul George, where even Dade County lifers will learn something new about the place we call home.Know before you go: Open Monday through Saturday 10 am - 5 pm; Sunday 12-5pm."
