Are you looking for a fun day trip to take from Fort Lauderdale? Whether you’re a local or visiting the area, there are plenty of great spots within a few hours’ drive from Fort Lauderdale that make the perfect day trip destination. So grab your friends and get ready for an adventure! Here are three of my favorite day trips you can take from Fort Lauderdale whether you’re visiting from out of town, a snowbird, or like me….live in the area.
1. Miami Beach
A quick drive east will take you to Miami Beach — a must-see destination for any traveler in South Florida. With its white sand beaches, beautiful Art Deco architecture, and vibrant nightlife, Miami Beach is sure to please everyone in your group. Spend your morning browsing the shops on Lincoln Road Mall, then hit up one of the many beach clubs or rooftop bars for lunch with a view. Afterward, explore Ocean Drive’s colorful buildings and enjoy some ice cream while people watching on South Beach.
