Fort Lauderdale – The “Venice of America"

Fort Lauderdale is a city of islands held together by canals, rivers, bays and waterways hundreds of miles long. Many Fort Lauderdale residents and visitors enjoy boating in their speedboats, enjoying a peaceful fishing charter, or cruising the coastline by yacht. Gorgeous homes in every size and style make up the bulk of this primarily residential area. Fort Lauderdale offers a wonderful quality of life, highlighted by semi-tropical weather, rich ordinary beauty, a variety of cultural entertainment and educational services.

Fort Lauderdale has turned into a recreation area for all ages, in addition to being a center for commerce and high-tech industry. Each October, the city hosts the Fort Lauderdale Boat Show attracting mega-yachts from around the world and over 1,000,000 visitors to the show over the 4-day weekend making this one of the largest boat shows in the world.
