Top Lauderdale-by-the-Sea Hotel Deals

Make the Most of Your Lauderdale-by-the-Sea Stay

A low-rise beach town with serious diving credentials

Lauderdale-by-the-Sea distinguishes itself from South Florida's high-rise corridor through a strictly enforced 4-story building limit that preserves open skies and ocean views. The town officially embraced MiMo (Miami Modern) architecture in 2013, creating a cohesive mid-century aesthetic with playful horizontal lines and vintage charm. Florida's legislature designated this community as the state's Beach Diving Capital in 2016, recognizing exceptional coral reefs that begin just 100 yards offshore—accessible directly from the sand without a boat.

Walkable village atmosphere and waterfront dining

Anglin's Square serves as the social center, where live music fills the oceanfront plaza and Adirondack chairs invite you to linger between exploring local shops and restaurants. The historic Anglin's Fishing Pier extends into the Atlantic as South Florida's longest. Blue Moon Fish Co. delivers upscale dining on the Intracoastal Waterway, while the SS Copenhagen shipwreck from 1900 creates an underwater archaeological preserve that snorkelers can reach from shore.

Getting around and exploring beyond

The complimentary Pelican Hopper shuttle eliminates the need for a rental car within town. Fort Lauderdale-Hollywood International Airport sits 13 miles south, providing convenient access. Day trips extend to the Everglades or Bimini by high-speed ferry.
