Fort Lauderdale

Fort Lauderdale sits on the New River in southeastern Florida, where waterways thread across a flat coastal plain close to the Atlantic Ocean. The city’s canal system has earned it the nickname “Venice of America,” while the Intracoastal Waterway and the river support water-taxi routes through central districts. Las Olas Boulevard runs east from downtown toward Fort Lauderdale Beach, with galleries, restaurants and shops along its central stretch. On the New River’s south bank, the 1901 Stranahan House recalls pioneer Frank Stranahan and the city’s early development. Port Everglades, just south of downtown, underlines Fort Lauderdale’s continuing maritime role. Browse related webcams nearby to form a broader impression of Fort Lauderdale and South Florida.
