With a world-famous city like Miami just 40 kilometres away, Fort Lauderdale can get overlooked sometimes, which is a shame. There is just so much to do in this city in south-east Florida that it will be hard to choose during your Caribbean cruise holiday. For starters, there are the fantastic beaches. Dania Beach, Hollywood Beach, North Ocean Beach, Hallanda beach; all equally stunning. Bring your towel, sunglasses and sunscreen and unwind.
Had enough of the sun for a while? Shake hands with the Fort Lauderdale of 100 years ago at Bonnet House; a stunning 1920s estate.

Or go for Italian food at Louie Bossi, a very popular restaurant with locals as well. Fancy more? Grab a water taxi and dive into downtown Fort Lauderdale.
