What to do in Ft Lauderdale

[havasuhusker]

The wife and I are going to Ft Lauderdale next weekend. Reaching out to the masses to see what are some must sees/do's while we are there.

Boat!

I don’t have any leads but be sure to get on a boat.

 

[DrunkenSailor]

The elbo room and something like this: https://www.boatsetter.com/boats/vfrhjpn?pos=12&package_type=bareboat

Red the steakhouse in miami is a favorite and joe's stone crab is the spot for seafood.

Take a drive up to Nonnas in Boca. Insane Italian food. Family owned and operated. Buddies wife's family owns it. Dan (@H20 Toie ) was just there a few days ago.

Trattoria Nonna

I'd recommend taking a drive over to Miami and visit TNT Marine / Lipship Performance and checking out the rack storage and scenery there. Always some kick ass boats around, especially on a weekend. You could also go to Haulover marina as well.

Elbo room is on of a couple original bars on the famous A1A
Lauderdale by the Sea is a great place to hang
Just north pompano beach
Great beach to hang and get an umbrella and chairs
Go north on A1A and follow into multimillionaire mile
You will end up crossing the bridge (draw) over to Boca-Raton
North Deerfield Beach and great shopping

Matter of fact @havasuhusker let us know if you are going to go to Nonnas for dinner for sure and we can let Suzanna and Jason Know you'll be there for the special treatment!

There was a sports bar we went to, that I can't remember the name of. Big place. Great bar. Owned by some big athlete I think?

Not on the beach, inland a bit. The food was awesome as well.

Sound familiar? It was a very popular place!

We're staying at the the Westin Ft Lauderdale Beach Resort.

Thank you! I'll send you a PM if we're for sure going. Appreciate it!

I can pick you up at the west end of Seville St. It’s right around the corner from the Westin. There is a water taxi whistle stop there. There are no pads, so let’s not let my boat hit the wall! Lol Pm your phone. I will text before I call you with my Arizona phone number.

Dude! The Westin is BAD ASS! Coincidence after Jason (engaged to Suzanna that owns Nonnas) bought our boat we flew out to run it with him and he put us up in the Westin in a 2 bedroom suite. Probably the nicest suite I'd ever stayed in. Bad ass!!

Also, Id recommend going for lunch at the 15th St fishery in Lauderdale. All the huge yachts dock across the bay and are cruising the area. Good scenery.

Shula’s was great last I was there. I love the broiled garlic and butter appetizer, dip the bread in it.

pasta with meat sauce is excellent.

So I’m assuming it’s the north Westin in between the ocean A1A and intercostal next to Sunrise ave

I do believe that is the one you're talking about. Between Las Olas and Sunrise on the A1A.

 

[sirbob]

Las olas is nice to walk and check out for dinner - Greek / Italian / Mexican types places - lots of choices.

Also just north is a place called the blue marlin or blue martini or something like that - great bar for adults that like to go out. Music / dance / have fun kind of place. Not too many punks the last few times I was there.

Yes next to the Ft Lauderdale yacht club

Bookempers sounds right. Really fun place!

We’re headed there tomorrow for kids spring break. Staying with my sister. Unfortunately we’ll have kids with us.

 

[sonicss31]

I like Two George’s on the intercoastal. It’s in Deerfield Beach.

 

[C-Ya]

It’s Bokampers. Great place. You can walk from there to Shooters and Flip Flops. And others!

Just remember...... Spring break is in full force right now and Ft Lauderdale beach is a complete zoo.

Sonicss31 mentioned my favorite watering hole. The Cove/Two George’s. Live music, drinks, limited spring breakers. Lol

Stopped there All the time on the boat both going n to lake boca and on the way south to my place in lighthouse point(west side of icw)
Famous yacht Gallentddy lady was kiddy corner from me (east did ICW)

15th Street Fisheries across the bridge on 17th. Largest fuel dock on the intercoastel. Great food and view. Eat downstairs... Also Casablanca on A-1A is bomb. Coconuts is also a great place to hang... I could go on forever...

 

[kiethco]

Buy the watertaxi pass for 35-40 bucks or so. We bounced around the area all day. These boaters are serious. Ft Lauderdale claims to be the yachting capitol of the world, lots of crazy stuff to see in the slips.

 

[catman]

A must is Southport Raw Bar.. A locals dive on the ICW with live music nightly...Around the corner from 15TH Street Fisheries..

 

[havasuhusker]

Wow! There are some excellent ideas being thrown around. I only wish we were there longer than 4 days! I appreciate everyone's ideas and willingness to help out a fellow member. Much appreciated!!

If you still lived here..... we would practically be neighbors. I am just south of 14th St Causeway, first canal, huge condo with marina. 1st Boat you see from intracoastal is mine. It’s the only one on a boat lift. Custom built with no manufactures name. Sometimes I don’t know if people are robbing me..... or just taking pics of boat. Lol (5 HD Cameras put people on notice, so I know they are just taking pics)

The Galiant Lady is one of 5 yachts in the owners collection. They all begin with the word Galient. Galient Legacy is a awesome Sport Fisher approx 90’.

Here is some more trivia...... The 180’ ft Yacht named The Triumphant Lady is owned by Judge Judy.

Havasuhusker...... I am still waiting for your Pm.

I forgot all about a place. Google The Warf Fort Lauderdale. It opened over a year ago, but covid shut it down. It back open now. This place it the latest hot spot. It attracts several thousand attendees. It right on the New River in downtown Fort Lauderdale. Take a look.
