All About Lauderdale-by-the-Sea
Located just north of Miami on Florida's western Caribbean waters, Lauderdale-by-the-Sea is a small coastal retreat known for its walkable beaches, oceanside amenities, colorful street signs, and mid-century modern architecture.

Oceanfront public spaces like El Prado Park provide walking trails, picnic areas, and beach access while remaining close to the boutique shopping and seafood options available in the compact town center. In addition, snorkeling and scuba diving sites are available just offshore and are some of the most popular dive locations in Florida due to the abundance and diversity of marine life found in the shallow reef ecosystems. Lounging about the area's soft sandy beaches or exploring the wider metropolitan areas of Fort Lauderdale and Miami are all viable options from this welcoming beachside hamlet.
