Away from the beaches of Fort Lauderdale there’s a whole lot of things to do for all the family. We’ve listed some of the most popular things to do.

FLORIDA EVERGLADES
The most popular Florida Everglades air-boat ride can be found at Sawgrass Recreation Park – only 25 minutes from Fort Lauderdale! Here you can do the Florida Everglades Airboat Adventure and Wildlife Encounter. It’s the perfect introduction to the Everglades and it’s turtles, fish, Florida gators and wading birds.
VISIT KEY WEST
Why not take a day trip to Key West? Enjoy a fun Caribbean atmosphere, street artists, outdoor cafés and more. On your drive from Fort Lauderdale you’ll cross 42 bridges, including the Florida Keys’ famous Seven Mile Bridge, which has been used in some Hollywood blockbuster movies. While in Key West, be sure to do the Glass Bottom boat where you’ll discover part of the Florida Reef, the 3rd-largest coral barrier reef in the world.
