It’s a beach
Apr 2024 • Couples
This is a nice beach. Overall there’s nothing special about it. I visited on a Tuesday afternoon and found parking right across the street. The beach was quiet and serene.

Pissy Dog Park
Apr 2024 • Solo
Doggie park 101: don’t go unless you have a dog. This place smells like strong piss. I’m not sure if it’s just the dogs or the humans too but it overpowered my experience. 0/10 would not recommend

Nice beach
Mar 2024 • Couples
Unknowingly arrived during Spring Break. Beach was very busy, however police presence was abundant. I did not feel unsafe at any time.

It’s Giving Apple

I went on Thanksgiving. It was amazing, the water was really clear and refreshing, the sand was not got at all. It looked like the IOS 10 default background with the clear water and sand, I will definitely come back.

Spring Break mayhem...
Mar 2023
North of Fort Lauderdale Beach Park, this small stretch of sand was full of Spring Break students when we went. It has clean sand with amenities like beach chairs, umbrellas and sports equipment rentals. There are restrooms, showers, metered parking and a slew of restaurants, drinking spots and shops alongside. Much to see if you choose not to swim in the clear waters. Notable police, canine and park presence. I'm sure it is a different environment during non - Spring Break weeks...

Las Olas Beach!
Dec 2022
Went with my daughter for some fun in the sun last December. The weather was a little too windy for my taste but the beach was perfect: lots of people enjoying the rays of sunshine while relaxing next to the beautiful waters of Fort Lauderdale. Parking was available and easy to use.
