It’s also famous for its sport fishing, with anglers looking to land that perfect kingfish or barracuda. Located where the Gulf Stream bends, the clear, warm waters are the perfect playground for watersports including surfing, kayaking and paddleboarding, or for the adrenaline-seekers, kitesurfing, and jet skiing. For a day of leisure, there’s a family-friendly beach with lifeguards, a kid’s playground, interactive water features, and volleyball courts.

Lauderdale-By-The-Sea is a quaint village located on a barrier island that’s seven feet above sea level. Featuring mid-century modern architecture and charming, Old Florida-style charm, you’ll want to spend a day here. It is Florida’s Beach Diving capital, with the first of a three-tiered natural coral reef system just 100 yards from the beach. Snorkelers and scuba divers flock to the reef and to the nearby shipwreck snorkel trail that includes the SS Copenhagen, a British cargo steamer that struck the reef and sank in 1900. Lauderdale-By-The-Sea is also home to Anglins Fishing Pier, which extends more than 900 feet over the Atlantic Ocean.

Famous for its historic lighthouse.
