Fort Lauderdale

With the Intracoastal waterway and a huge network of canals that connect it’s upscale neighborhoods, Fort Lauderdale is called the Venice of America.  You can get almost anywhere you want go by boat, whether it be restaurants, your home on the water, hotels and condominiums, beaches and even the cruise port.  There is so much to see and do that you can only do by boat.  From Intracoastal cruises along Millionaire’s Row, to visiting the Ft Lauderdale sandbar, to hitting up our waterfront restaurants and bars and even shopping for real estate, there’s never a lack of things to do in Fort Lauderdale along the Intracoastal waterway.

If you have a bit of boating experience, you can rent a boat and take it out to explore for yourself.  If you prefer to take an experienced guide, we have a few great captains that grew up here locally and know where all the movie stars and famous people live.  Some great stops you can make when renting a boat in Fort Lauderdale are:

• Millionaire’s Row- our location is right in the heart of the Millionaire’s Row houses along the Intracoastal
• The New River- Cruise up the New River to see historical Fort Lauderdale and all the interesting houses and sights up the New River waterway.  Downtowner, Riverfront, Pirate Bar and Rendezvous are great restaurants up the New River.
• The Fort Lauderdale Sandbar is a fun stop for swimming and partying.  Anchor up in the shallows and fix yourself a cocktail while you wade around in the waist high deep water listening to some good music.
• Stop in at the 15^th Street Fisheries to feed the tarpon and jack crevales.  Tarpon get up to nearly 200 pounds there and put on a great show.  Always a fun stop.
• See the massive cruise ships at dock in Port Everglades.  Sometimes even a submarine or an Air Craft Carrier will be docked there.  There are different ships in port every day, the largest in the world.

• Cruise past some of the most expensive yachts in the world docked at either Pier 66 or the Bahia Mar marinas.  These yachts sell anywhere from a couple million up to 300 million dollars.
• Stop in for another great swim spot at John Lloyd State Park.  The entrance, Whiskey Creek, is mid-way between Hollywood and Ft Lauderdale.  There’s a nice beach there to pull the boat up onto and a great little outdoor restaurant.
• Check out the sailboat anchorage at Las Olas Blvd or the other one at Lake Sylvia.  See how the sailboaters do it, living on a budget of almost nothing.
• Don’t forget to grab a drink at Shooters or Bokampers Waterfront Bar and Restaurants.  Always a lively time and they have a great dock you can tie up to while you cool down with a frothy beverage.
• Whatever you’re looking to do out there, we’ll point you in the right direction.  There’s a boatload of stuff to do and see in and around Fort Lauderdale that you can only experience aboard a boat.  When you’re cruising aboard your own rental boat, you’re suddenly part of the lifestyles of the rich and famous you usually can just dream about.  They say the millionaires live in Miami and the Billionaires live in Fort Lauderdale.  Come see for yourself aboard one of our Fort Lauderdale rental boats today.
