KING OF SPRING

WELCOME BACK – It's that time of year again down south and it's official, Spring Break is back in Ft. Lauderdale. Two decades ago spring breakers flocked from every corner of the country to the madness that pursues in what Ft. Lauderdale became referred to as "King of Spring". From the 90's and early 2000's, people began traveling more on cruises and visiting exotic islands like Jamaica and Dominican Republic or other legendary Spring Break spots like Cancun, Cozumel and Panama City. Today, the shift has returned back to the beach in Ft. Lauderdale. With music blasting from venues like Elbo Room, Dirty Blondes or Exit 66....spring breakers described the scene as a "nightclub on sand".

The Fort Lauderdale Water Taxi is not only practical for getting to some of the more frequented locations in town (like the Galleria Mall, Las Olas Blvd, and Las Olas Riverfront) but also offers a unique perspective on the city itself since you're traveling via the canals.
