Fort Lauderdale Beach

South Florida coast

Fort Lauderdale Beach is a stretch of Atlantic coastline in southeastern Florida, part of the city of Fort Lauderdale.

It gained fame as a spring break destination in the mid-20th century, though the city has since cultivated a more upscale image.

The term often refers broadly to the beachfront area with its hotels, restaurants, and promenade: We're staying at Fort Lauderdale Beach for the week.
