Fort Lauderdale Car Rental Information

Traffic Information

Fort Lauderdale is located 30 miles north of Miami on the Atlantic coast, connected by Interstate 95 (I-95) which runs north-south, a short drive is the only thing in between Fort Lauderdale and the downtown areas of Miami and West Palm Beach. Another main interstate is the Florida Turnpike which can take you north to Orlando and south to the Florida Keys. You can also choose to drive across Alligator Alley, also known as the Everglades Parkway, to visit the many nature reserves and Gulf Coast hot spots like Naples.

Although the city streets of Fort Lauderdale are laid out in a grid system that is rather easy to navigate, the Venice of America's numerous canals of the east side of the city can make things complicated. Make sure to have a GPS or map ready to show you where bridges are located along your route so you can plan the best way to reach your destination. While visiting the fantastic Fort Lauderdale beach, arrive early and plan on parking south of Las Olas Boulevard or under the Las Olas Boulevard Bridge. If necessary head north of Sunrise Boulevard where more spots are to be found on AIA.

Sixt Sightseeing Tips

• While staying in the city, head to Las Olas Boulevard where you can browse the shops, visit the NSU Art Museum, and have a fantastic meal outdoors. For a nice contrast to this contemporary scene tour the Stranahan House Museum or the Bonnet House Museum and Gardens. Both historic homes offer a chance to get an up-close feel for the rich history of Fort Lauderdale.
• Just south of Miami Beach, Key Biscayne, is a great escape that gives you that island feeling without having to travel far. Families can enjoy a day among the calm waters and the soft, sandy beach at Crandon Park which also offers cheap and plentiful parking. The park features a marina, golf course, tennis courts and a children's playground with a restored carousel. Or you can head to Bill Baggs Cape Florida State Recreation Area. Here you can partake in a range of water activities like ocean kayaking and windsurfing. Take a tour of its lighthouse before finding a spot on the beach to watch the sunset over the beautiful turquoise water.
• Take a ride to rustic Redland and spend the day picking fruit on any of the berry farms, or taking in the sights and smells at the Fruit and Spice Park or the RF Orchids gardens. Wind down at the local winery whose beautiful grounds offer respite while their wines provide the excitement as they are made not with grapes, but tropical fruits.
• Other alternatives to the beaches and boutiques of Fort Lauderdale are the many nature centers and state parks, such as the Everglades National Park, in the region perfect for a range of outdoor activities. While in the area it might also interest you to learn more about the Seminole Tribe who first settled the landscape. Head west on Interstate 75, known as Alligator Alley, and keep your eye out for highway namesake as you drive to the Ah-Tah-Thi-Ki Museum on the Big Cypress Seminole Indian Reservation. Here you have the opportunity to learn about the culture and the last 300 years of Seminole history from the thousands of artifacts and thoughtful exhibitions.
