Fort Lauderdale Hollywood Beach

To celebrate the onset of 2016, we took a 5-day vacation to Florida. So, on the night of 31st Dec, we landed in Fort Lauderdale and checked into our hotel. I had rented a car through Enterprise beforehand – I feel if you want to save your energy and time, car comes in pretty handy. Having traveled extensively over the years through different modes, my view has only strengthened further!

As we got up to the New Year, I was pretty excited to head to the iconic Hollywood Beach (a TripAdvisor Traveler’s Choice Winner)*

Hollywood Beach is famous for its 2.5-mile beachside Boardwalk – rated as one of America’s finest oceanfront promenade by Travel + Leisure Magazine. It has also been adjudged among the nation’s cleanest, safest, and most user-friendly beaches. Its one-of-a-kind boardwalk is paved with bricks and is a sheer delight for cyclists and joggers. There are many eateries and cafes along the way, thus providing for a wholesome experience.

The pristine beauty of the place indeed speaks volumes about its popularity! We spent a couple of hours enjoying the blissful morning in the company of many people. Guess, a perfect start to the year 🙂

*For the record, I had started 2015 on a beach too – the one of gorgeous Cape May to be precise!
