Hi Bequia,

 

Thank you so much for all of this info on hotels and water taxi. I have only been to FLL once, stayed at the Sleep Inn / Dania. Completely fine, but this time I want to try something on the beach or 17th St. My question - I know nothing about the water taxi. Can you or anyone else give me a little info? Although I won't really need to go anywhere, is it something we can just hop on and see the sights from? Will it take us to the port the next day? I assume it is a taxi that carries a number of people, not just one 1 or 2? Clueless and Curious!

boatlover, here's the link to the water taxi website where you can learn all about it. Hopping on for the ride without geting off is a perfect way to see the sights from th water in Ft Lauderdale. Most water taxi captains are very entertaining, gossipy and knowledgeable of the waters and its shores, it's a blast. Your ticket allows you to get on and off all day. I encourage you to get off at Las Olas and explore the many fine shops and restaurants. Unfortunately they do not go to the cruise ships. That section of the port is very secure, access is restricted.

Thank you for the link. It makes perfect sense that security would not allow the water taxi to stop at the port. I look forward to checking out the taxi.

Thanks so much Bequia! Because of a flight delay we didn't get to spend too much time in Ft. Lauderdale in April. I'm going back again next July, and we're staying one night pre-cruise and one night post-cruise in Ft. lauderdale. Your info is much appreciated :)
