Stroll the boulevard, duck in and out of our cool breezeways, and be delighted by what you discover.

It is almost impossible not to spend time at Las Olas Boulevard while in Fort Lauderdale, this popular strip the main gathering, shopping, and dining location in the heart of the city that leads straight to the beach.

Las Olas Boulevard is considered to be 'at the forefront of everything from fashion boutiques and art galleries, to memorable restaurants, sidewalk cafes, and bars.' Las Olas, translating into 'the waves' in Spanish, stretches from the beach at A1A over the Intracoastal Waterway, the boulevard lined with tropical palm trees and giving way to views of million-dollar homes, businesses, and yachts.

You will find over 3 dozen bistros, clubs, and restaurants along the way, most with both indoor and outdoor options, making this spot a true 'food lovers paradise'. Some eateries we suggest for your group during your visit include delicious favorites such as Del Frisco's Grille, Kilwins Ice Cream, Lobster Bar Sea Grille, Luigi's Coal Oven Pizza, and The Floridian Restaurant, though there are so many more to choose from.

There are also over 120 specialty shops, world-class art galleries, museums, salons, spas, jewelry stores, and more to explore while here. Shop home furnishings, shoes, apparel, art, jewelry, books, gifts, and even boats, then settle in for some entertainment at any of the local attractions such as the Broward Center for Performing Arts, the Stranahan House, WonderMunch Tours, or the Museum of Science and Discovery.

There is so much to see and do (and eat) at Las Olas Boulevard, you can certainly please every member of your group in one visit!
