Along with every vacation comes the task of deciding exactly how to plan your trip. Well here in Fort Lauderdale, there's no shortage of things to do. In fact, the area has a nice blend of beach activities and local wildlife that makes this vacation spot a prime outdoors hot spot. If you're tired of the beach and are looking for a bit of exploring, check out some of the fun things this area has to offer. High on the list is Everglades Holiday Park, which has both guided tours and at-your-leisure walks through the Everglades. Take a peek at alligators or pack some binoculars for bird watching. With a stunning array of beautiful butterflies, Butterfly World is another local attraction that's great for the whole family. Sawgrass Recreation Park and the Hugh Taylor Birch Recreation Area are both lovely places to view local wildlife. Both areas have small walks and hikes that are appropriate for all age levels. These wildlife preserves are a gem amidst the hustle and bustle of downtown. If you tire of the warm beaches in Florida, there are many things to see and do.
