Welcome to Lauderdale by the Sea
The Town of Lauderdale-By-The-Sea is approximately 1.5 square miles in area and is located along Florida's "Gold Coast" in Broward County, Florida. The entire Town is situated between the Atlantic Ocean on the east and the Intracoastal Waterway on the west.
Lauderdale-By-The-Sea is Florida's Beach Diving Capital. Just 100 yards from the beach is the first reef of a three-tiered natural coral reef system. This proximity means visitors can swim out from shore to go snorkeling or even scuba diving and explore the diverse ocean habitat.
The beach is the heart of things to do and see in Lauderdale-By-The-Sea. Anglin’s Fishing Pier is a top attraction open 24 hours a day featuring a bait shop, cafe, and occasional live music performances. Extending more than 900 feet over the Atlantic, it’s beloved both by anglers who want to cast their lines and sightseers who stroll out to enjoy the ocean air.
Public parks and oceanfront spaces are favorites for visitors and locals alike. El Prado Park is the area’s most popular beachfront park and the Beach Pavilion is another restful spot for people watching with an ocean view. Lined with Adirondack chairs and boat benches, you can sit and take it easy between beach activities or shopping in Anglin’s Square.
