Fort Lauderdale is full of hustle and bustle — that’s one of the things we love about it! Sometimes, though, it’s nice to escape to somewhere a little quieter. Enter John U. Lloyd Beach State Park. It’s got everything you need to enjoy a memorable day! Here are just a few of our favorite things to do there.

The Chimney House

This neighborhood restaurant inside a 1924 historic home supplies Latin fusion in the heart of Fort Lauderdale. Enjoy flavors from “Peru, Colombia, Argentina, Spain, and Guatemala with a high emphasis on quality ingredients.” Our favorites include the Wild-Caught Argentinian Red Shrimp and the Arroz Marinero. Pair them with one of their famous, House-made Sangria or go for our personal favorite, the jalapeńo Infused Margarita.

Local tip: The Chimney House is an excellent option for people who are looking for a delicious experience before a show at the Broward Center.
